Warm Weekend Weather!

Another shot of summer in our late season weekend. Temperatures through the weekend will be in the mid to high 20s across southern Alberta. Some locations may even reach 30. The warm weather is due to a large upper ridge dominating western Canada. The sun is shining, and temperatures are above average from the west coast to Manitoba. A Monday cold front will bring showers and cooler weather at the start of next week.
