Blustery and seasonal in Calgary
A large area of high pressure is nestled in over Lloydminster right now, with potential to stick around for a few days. We don't often talk about cutoff highs, but here we go!
The northern face of this ridge getting sliced off is often a trigger for a sustained blocking high (AKA "this is going to stick around a while."). Conditions align with that principle with little interruption for the next few days, with the exception to the rule coming in the form of an unstable airmass Friday. Cloud will build, keeping us relatively mild overnight into Saturday, but it will press showers onto us Saturday.
Thereafter, this area of high pressure will keep us near or above seasonal for the remainder of the week. The long-range outlook has a strong probability of keeping Calgary near seasonal, wit
