Cooler than Average

After a 29 degree Monday, the rest of the week will be cooler than average. Calgary missed out on the active weather in central Alberta Monday, but we'll get another chance Tuesday. Rain is expected to develop Tuesday afternoon, and there may be some non severe thunderstorms. The wet weather should suppress the temperatures, keeping them below average.
