An abrupt change to the weather is on the way for southern Alberta later today.
After a stretch of above average spring temperatures, a cold front will move through this afternoon and evening reaching the american border tonight. This front will usher in a cooler airmass along with rain and snow.
Precipitation will start as rain before changing to snow. The transition from rain to snow will begin this evening North of the Calgary area, and overnight near Calgary. Regions closer to the Saskatchewan and american borders will see rain for a longer duration before eventually switching to snow on Tuesday. With temperatures hovering just above zero degrees celsius, precipitation type as well as snowfall accumulations will vary greatly.
There remains uncertainty as to how much snowfall will accumulate, though amounts of 5 to 10 cm are possible by Wednesday morning in some locations.
Calm and cooler conditions are forecast on Wednesday, and for the remainder of the week.

Today it’s Telus.
That makes two of Canada’s biggest corporate names, two massive data breaches, two days in a row...and if you’re keeping score at home, we’re not even halfway through March.
Telus has confirmed it is investigating a “cybersecurity incident” - their words, not mine - after a hacking group called ShinyHunters claimed to have walked out the door with somewhere between 700 terabytes and nearly a full petabyte of data. If those numbers don’t mean much to you, think of it this way…we’re not talking about one database getting cracked. We’re talking about multiple internal systems, backups and data lakes.
