Bring out the coats: Calgary is expecting flurries and a drop in temperature

Looks like winter isn’t quite done with us yet, YYC.

According to The Weather Network, Calgary is expected to be on the chilly side this weekend, with low temperatures and flurries in the forecast.

It’s 4ºC in the city right now, feeling more like 2ºC. Calgary will see a mix of sun and clouds and a high of 11ºC on Friday afternoon before the temperature drops over the weekend.

Friday night will bring a low of -7ºC, rising to 0ºC by Saturday morning. A high of only 5ºC is in the forecast for Saturday, with some wet flurries coming our way.

By Sunday morning, there could be up to one centimetre of snow on the ground.

Sunday will be mainly sunny, but that sunshine won’t help the temperatures at all, and a high of 5ºC is expected again.

Sunday’s temperatures will drop to -4ºC overnight, and Monday brings a high of 3ºC with a mix of sun and clouds.

The forecast doesn’t show a break in the chilly weather until next Friday, when we’ll finally see double-digit temperatures again with a high of 10ºC predicted.

Let’s hope the temperature warms up a little more next weekend, so that we can take full advantage of patio season in Calgary.
