Heritage Day: late day t-showers?

It was another picture perfect summer day in S. Alta., with the temp. rocketing to 34C in Med. Hat. this aft. Env. Can. has issued severe t-storm watches and warnings for much of Cent. Alta.(not incl. Calgary) into this eve. Holiday Mon. will start out fine, but clouds will form in the aft., and there is the chance for scat. t-showers by eve., more numerous toward the foothills. Temps. will cool a bit for mid-week, but after the chance of a t-shower Tue. P.M., we should see a couple dry, mild days. Enjoy summer while we have it.
