Hot, hot, hot: Calgary forecast to see a 27°C temperature change soon

An average spring for Calgary may have felt cooler than usual to some; however, a big blast of heat is forecast to be on the way for the city, bringing with it a decent temperature swing, too.

According to Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC), Calgary is forecast to see chillier temperatures to start the work week. Today’s high will be below average at 11 °C, with a chance of showers. The temperature will then dip briskly to an overnight low of 4°C tonight.

Tomorrow, showers are likely in YYC, with a daytime high of 11°C and an overnight low of 3°C. According to ECCC, the average high for this time of year is 20.4°C.

Looking ahead to the end of the work week, a gradual warmup is on the way, with daytime highs reaching 15°C on Wednesday, followed by 20°C on Thursday and a stunning 22°C on Friday.
