The Farmers’ Almanac also says there will be frigid temperatures in the Rockies and into the prairies. They predict that in January, Canadians may see one of the coldest arctic outbreaks in recent years.

The Almanac says that 2023 could get off to a cold start as there is the potential of heavy snow, followed by a sweep of bitter, cold air.

They are then expecting a rainy, stormy March that will also feature heavy snow as we head into the spring.

While there has been a lot of sun in Alberta this year, it hasn’t been all good. The province has seen record-high temperatures and some severe storms have hit the province hard.
