Snowfall warning lifted but flurries remain in Sunday forecast

Share

The snowfall warning for Calgary has been lifted after a Saturday snowstorm socked the city, but there are still flurries in the forecast for Sunday.

Sunday morning around 8:30 a.m., Environment and Climate Change Canada was advising that there is a 60 per cent likelihood of more snow falling.

At 8 a.m., the temperature was -15 with a wind chill of – 22.

City crews are out clearing priority routes.

"Through the first 18 hours following snowfall end, crews focus our snow response on completing maintenance work, including plowing through lanes and applying materials, on Calgary’s busiest routes (i.e. Crowchild Trail, Memorial Drive, Glenmore Trail)," the city said in a Sunday media release.

"City crews will also focus on clearing pedestrian infrastructure for the next 24 hours, such as pedestrian overpasses, sidewalks next to City-owned properties, designated section of pathways and high priority bus pads.

The city doesn't anticipate the need to call a snow route parking ban.

Calgary Transit posted on social media Sunday morning that “due to weather conditions, some routes may be running behind schedule or required to detour. Please allow extra time for your commute.”

This is a developing story that will be updated throughout the day.
