Calgary forecast is messy with some bumpy weather fluctuations on the way
It’s shaping up to be a bit of a weather roller coaster here in Calgary this week, with some big swings in temperature on the way.
According to the Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) forecast, the freezing daytime high temperatures have left the city; however, keep those winter jackets nearby.Ā
