Warmer, windier in Calgary today

Share

UPDATE: limited. I warmed a few days up. That's it. Seriously. Enjoy! And read that last line of the article before the five-day again... I bolded it for you...

Here comes the warm-up.

Westerly gusts aren't expected to peak until the late afternoon, but we'll develop the build by the lunch hour. Gusts are still slated for the 40 to 50 km/h range here, with a minute chance of gusts hitting 60 km/h – wind warnings are possible in the southwest. Because we're falling beneath a high-pressure ridge while this develops, we're also looking for a hefty shot of sunlight today.

Tomorrow, we dip back to temps reminiscent of yesterday, with a similar upper-air story:

Wind clips in out of the north, produces northerly gusts, and pares our temperature back. Based on the way this pattern has been rolling (and the five-day forecast below), you can imagine what happens next!

Enjoy it all while you can… tomorrow afternoon's article update will feature a frosty fifth day.
