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.

Alberta’s independence movement has finally built something substantial. Nearly 302,000 Albertans signed the independence petition. Several organizations are raising serious money. Social media audiences now reach tens of thousands of people directly, with far more seeing the material second-hand. There are volunteers, signs, town halls, advertising campaigns, and detailed work underway to determine what an independent Alberta might look like.
But the independence movement has a problem, and for once Ottawa has nothing to do with it. The problem is that some of the leading people in the movement are now pulling in different directions.
That is hardly new. Alberta independence politics has done this before. The modern movement reaches back through the Western Canada Concept and Gordon Kesler’s 1982 by-election victory, followed by various independence parties, ...
Well I don’t know who said it but they really screwed up. At the Mitch Sylvestre event talking about the new Alberta constitution last night some guy presenting said “flip-flop towel heads that don’t speak Canadian” and THAT’S the news. Now the Independence movement is being labelled “racist” and “bigoted” by even conservatives. Thanks, dude! As if we didn’t have enough to deal with in Jeff Rath! 🤦🏻♀️
