While the next seven days are all expected to be nothing but blue skies and unimpeded sunshine, the temperature is another matter entirely.

Hovering at a relatively mild high of 5°C and low of -1°C as we head into the weekend, according to Environment Canada, things take a turn for the cold on Saturday night when the thermometers are expected to plunge down to -8°C.

Sunday follows up with a crisp and cool 0°C, and then things warm right back up with a high of 9°C on Monday and an astounding 11°C on Tuesday — meaning that between Saturday night and Tuesday afternoon, Calgarians will experience a full 19°C swing.
Whether or not the warm spell will be enough to thaw what snow remains on the ground is still to be seen, though a general lack of precipitation over the coming two weeks could spell a snow-less Christmas here in YYC.
Which honestly wouldn’t be the worst thing to happen — seeing as we’ll probably be seeing our fair share of snow as we head further into winter.
