Friday will be another warm day across southern Alberta, with Calgary temperatures reaching the mid twenties. Temperatures may even reach 30 in some parts of southern Alberta. A cold front will come through on Saturday, and the weekend will be noticeably cooler. It no longer looks like the front will be accompanied by showers, though they can't be absolutely ruled out. Showers or not, weekend temperatures will be 10-15 degrees cooler than Friday's highs.
