With snow on the way, parts of Alberta will be feeling a little more wintery this week, says this article on The Weather Network.
“Areas along the foothills will pick up less than five centimetres of wet snow through Tuesday,” says Brian Dillon, a meteorologist at The Weather Network. “By Wednesday, Calgary may also see some scattered flurries mix in… (and) temperatures across the Prairies will drop to the low single digits.”
On September 16, 2003, eight centimetres of snow was recorded in Calgary. Before that, snow fell for the last five days of September in 1925…the snowiest start to fall since record-keeping began in 1881.”
“It snowed on each of those five days, (and) halted farming operations across southern Alberta.”
