Edmonton forecast to see a 32°C temperature DROP this week
Edmonton surely enjoyed the above-average temperatures in December, but a blast of chilly air thanks to a polar vortex is about to change things up this week.
According to The Weather Network, Edmonton’s daytime highs are set to drop off a cliff as the week goes on, fluctuating between -8°C and a mind-numbing -30°C.
Edmontonians are set to experience a lovely daytime high of -8°C today, before a dip to a bone-chilling overnight low of -40°C on Friday night. Grab those toques and mittens!
When you do the math between Monday’s daytime high and Friday’s overnight low, that’s a jaw-dropping 32°C temperature swing.
Bundle up, because the overnight lows for most of this week are crisp and cruel; Thursday is also below the dreaded -30°C mark with an overnight low of -33°C, along with Saturday and Sunday at -36°C and -30°C, respectively.
