A reasonably average November week in Calgary

CALGARY -

…Aaand scene. Wild weather from the clipper has moved right along and become a problem well to the east of us; we're left instead with calm conditions for a little while, as our upper air flow will work between a high-pressure ridge today, and primarily zonal flow thereafter.

The high pressure ridge today will feature a dose of northwesterly wind aloft, so our temperatures won't reach seasonal (3.5 C), but fair conditions will still dominate. Thursday will involve some wind, but nothing like Tuesday; westerly gusts will promote warming and push us above seasonal, though not by much.

Friday, we'll calm it down again, with Saturday now shifted to promote a second rush of westerly wind; the initial projections for a steep trough digging in and opening a cold front have left us for now. We'll aim for another above-seasonal day, with a drastic swell of cooling late in the day and overnight bringing us a chillier Sunday. Projections that offered up precipitation and high wind gusts have fallen away – there's still a shot at precipitation and wind, but it's moved later into the day.
