Calgarians are in for a pleasant weather surprise this weekend as warmer conditions return to the city, bringing double-digit daily highs back to the forecast.
Weekend Warm-Up Details
According to meteorologist Danielle Savoni, the weekend will see significantly brighter and warmer conditions compared to recent days. Sunday and Monday are both expected to reach double-digit temperatures, providing a welcome reprieve from the autumn chill.
While Sunday will bring some windy conditions, that very wind from the west is actually responsible for pushing temperatures into the teens. The weather shift comes as a relief to residents who have been experiencing cooler autumn temperatures in recent weeks.
Regional Weather Context
The warming trend in Calgary contrasts with weather patterns elsewhere in Canada. Environment Canada has warned that Ottawa could see its first snowstorm of the season on Sunday, with potential accumulations of 5-15 cm of snow.
Meanwhile, Montreal is also bracing for potentially slippery conditions as the city anticipates its first snowfall, which could make Monday morning commuting challenging for residents.
Looking Ahead
The temporary return to warmer conditions doesn't mean winter is far away for Calgary. The seasonal transition continues across the country, with various regions experiencing typical November weather patterns.
Environment Canada continues to monitor conditions and will provide updated forecasts as the weekend approaches. Residents are encouraged to enjoy the pleasant conditions while they last, as typical November weather patterns are expected to resume in the coming weeks.
