Mon.: summer is back

After another frosty morning in the mountains and N. Alta., a dry, pleasant day was experienced throughout the prov. Env. Can. has issued a frost warning for tonight for much of Alta., not incl. Calgary. Light frost could affect outlying areas around the city in the morning, but after that, it is summer all the way. Temps. will rocket to the mid-20’s tomorrow, and remain in the low 20’s until the end of the week. It’s too early for Indian Summer, but it will be splendid nonetheless!
