Snow and cold in store for Calgary and southern Alberta
Today’s officially the start of spring, but winter’s not done with southern Alberta.
Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for parts of Alberta, saying cooler temperatures are on the way and heavy snow is possible.
A cold front will sweep south on Tuesday, and there will be evening snow for parts of western and southern Alberta, intensifying Wednesday and continuing until early Friday morning.
“Over 48 hours, snowfall totals of 15 to 25 cm are expected for parts of southern Alberta. Higher amounts are possible over the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains,” the statement said.
Snowfall warnings are already in place for several parts of the province north and west of Calgary, including Red Deer County.
The cold spell is expected to last through the weekend and into next week.
Snowfall needed with ongoing drought
After several days of spring-like conditions, Calgary can expect a high of just 5 C on Tuesday, with snow starting to fall around midnight.
Wednesday’s forecast calls for five centimetres of snow with temperatures steady near –5 C.
Speaking on the Calgary Eyeopener Tuesday, weather expert and freelance videojournalist Kyle Brittain said with Alberta’s current drought conditions, spring snowfalls are exactly what’s needed.

“We need every single flake and we need probably three or four more of these spring snowstorms to really start making a difference,” he said.
“You know, the snow is slow-release water. It’s our summer insurance. We need it.”
