More warmth in Calgary but the tail-end of the forecast drops off fast

Share

Each day, we'll whittle down the number of days that stay above freezing. There's mixed precipitation banding its way through central Alberta and east of Calgary once again, though Calgary's dry layer is acting as a preventative locally. There’s a slim chance of anything developing here from the band.

Tomorrow morning, another shortwave will take another crack, and that shortwave has a marginally better chance of making something happen due to a relative lack of west wind today by comparison. Even still, fair weather ahead. Your seasonal normal is kicking around 0 C; anything above is gravy.

The column of cold will build up late Thursday, bringing with it flurries, and an end to positive temps for a while.

I’ve been trying to pinpoint the 'cold weather ejector seat' to see when we’ll get back above freezing. The early guess is Feb. 20.

Do these exercises for core strength if you can't stomach doing planks

Planks are one of the most effective exercises for strengthening your midsection, as they target all of your major core muscles: the transverse abdominis, rectus abdominis, external obliques and internal obliques. Yet despite the popularity of various 10-minute plank challenges, planking is actually one of the most dreaded core exercises, according to many fitness experts.
