Calgary's cold winter weather has prompted WinSport to close its ski and snowboard hill this week.

WinSport announced on Tuesday that the frigid forecast would mean the hill wouldn't be operating on Wednesday and Thursday.

Then, on Wednesday, WinSport said in an update that the decision had been made to keep the hill closed on Friday as well.

The Servus Tube Park will also be closed on Friday.

"With Saturday’s current forecast of near zero, it is expected the hill and tube park will re-open Saturday for regular operations," said a news release.

Calgarians who hope to visit WinSport are asked to keep an eye on their website for the latest weather updates, including lift statuses.
