Above normal temperatures to continue for Calgary
The clouds will roll in for Saturday giving us cloudy skies for the first day of the weekend.
We also have a decent chance of a few showers throughout the day. Because of the clouds, our temperature won’t be as high as Friday. Expect a high of 8 C.
Calgary weather day planner for Nov. 4, 2023.
Make sure to set your clocks back an hour before you head to bed on Saturday night and enjoy the extra hour of sleep on Sunday.
The sun will be back on Sunday, and that will help the temperatures climb back into the double digits.
Early next week won’t be quite as warm as Sunday, but temperatures should be at or above normal through the next work week. The usual temperature for this time of year is 5 C.
Calgary five-day forecast Nov. 4-8.
