STAMPEDE SIZZLER

It was a muggy, sultry Sun., with more than a dozen new temp. records set in Alta. today, the highest being Garden River in Wood Buffalo Park in N. Alta. at a scorching 34C! There is the chance for the next few hours of a shower or t-shower moving off the foothills s. of the city, but that’s about it for this eve. Other than sizzling temps., Mon. and Tue. will be much like today, with the chance of a passing P.M. t-shower. Wed. looks to be a little cooler with a better chance of t-showers, but we should dry out again later in the week with above avg. temps. returning.
