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.

Dear America,
To President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, and the Americans sitting across the negotiating table from our government:
I'm writing this from Canada with a request I never thought I would make of another country.
Please help us.
Not our government. Us. The Canadian people. Please help us understand what is happening to our own country.
Our relationship with the United States is deteriorating. Our economy is hurting. Canadian and American families are worried about jobs, businesses, mortgages and the country we're going to hand our children. Yet through one of the most consequential trade disputes of our lifetime, ordinary Canadians are being left in the dark about what is actually happening.
We hear statements and vague explanations from our government. What we don't get to see or hear is what actually happened at the table.
Increasingly, Canadians are learning more about ...
Corporate welfare is one thing I really don’t like to see in Alberta. All this rush to carbon capture and the subsidies tells you private companies can’t make a profit otherwise. We need government to get out of the way, reduce red tape and let businesses figure out what’s profitable. Then they can invest if they choose to. Not government dictates as to what to invest in. It would also reduce our tax burden as a taxpayer.
