Edmonton’s two-season problem continues as we suffer what is hopefully the tail end of a chaotic weather period.
I say that because we will get a whopping 5 cm dump of snow blown in by 20 km/h winds, with a high of 1 C and a wind chill of -9. That snow will persist until the late evening, the winds easing to 15 km/h and a low of -12 and a wind chill of -15.

Friday will hopefully be the new beginning promised to us by the start of spring, a mix of sun and cloud and a high of -2, brought down to a wind chill of -6 by 15km/h winds. The weekend will finally bring us back above 0 C, with clear an sunny skies, from the look of things.
