Temperatures remain steady moving into next week, with Monday at 7°C, Tuesday at 8°C, and Wednesday warming up to 10°C.

Many Calgarians are bracing themselves for the coming of “second winter.” However, according to TWN’s 14-day trend, daytime highs are expected to stay above 5°C through the rest of March.

We may get some flurries in the days leading up to the last weekend of the month, but otherwise it looks like it’s smooth sailing into spring.

Make the most of the continued good weather and get outside this weekend, YYC!
