The City of Calgary has also been planning for the anticipated snowfall.

“We understand the critical role that timely and efficient winter maintenance plays in the lives of Calgarians,” says Chris Hewitt, Manager of Mobility Maintenance at The City of Calgary.

The City says it will “continue to prioritize removal of barriers of snow and ice along our priority routes,” and its winter maintenance strategy includes “round-the-clock availability for crews to provide Calgarians a safe and reliable transportation network.”

There is some good news, though. Even with snow right around the corner, Calgary should have a warmer than usual winter, thanks to a “classic El Niño pattern,” according to the Weather Network.

So, despite a gloomy forecast full of snow for next week in Calgary, El Niño means we will see a delay in the arrival of consistent cold weather.
