Calgary weather day planner for Dec. 12, 2023.
It will be even warmer for Wednesday with a high of at least 6C, but it will be a little windy.
Our next burst of winter arrives on Thursday. It will kick off with some rain and transition to snow.
Preliminary amounts look like up to two millimetres of rain, then two to five centimetres of snow, which will make the roads tricky for the morning and home-time commutes.
