Cool nights, and delightful days are in store. This morning, areas in the southern mtns. and foothills had a light frost (Crowsnest Pass dipped to -2C), and these areas will be close to that again tonight. Temps. will rise to the low 20’s tomorrow and the high 20’s Mon., all under brilliant sunshine, before gradually declining the rest of the week. Showers are not expected before late Thur. So, great weather to close out Expo Latino and Globalfest, folks.
