This was Calgary’s snowiest and second coldest Thanksgiving Monday in 85 years | Globalnews.ca (http://globalnews.ca/news/2994937/this-was-calgarys-snowiest-and-second-coldest-thanksgiving-monday-in-85-years/)

It snowed for 23 out of 24 hours Thanksgiving Monday, according to the official weather station at the Calgary International Airport where records are kept.
According to the hourly observations it was only light snowfall that fell so Calgary ended the day with a total of 4.4 centimetres of snow. That accumulation was enough to go down in the record books as the snowiest Thanksgiving Monday in history.
