Calgary, AB – The chilly start to Friday morning will soon give way to a warmer afternoon, according to weather experts.
Temperatures in the city dropped to -10°C overnight, but are expected to rise to a high of 2°C by the afternoon. This shift in weather is due to a warm front moving in from the west, bringing milder air with it.
While the morning may feel brisk, residents can expect a pleasant afternoon with a mix of sun and clouds. The warmer temperatures are expected to stick around for the weekend, with highs of 5°C on Saturday and 7°C on Sunday.
However, the warmer weather may come with some gusty winds, with gusts reaching up to 40 km/h on Friday afternoon. This could make for a blustery day, so residents are advised to hold onto their hats and secure any loose objects outdoors.
The warmer temperatures and gusty winds are also expected to bring some melting to the city, as the snow and ice begin to thaw. This could lead to some slippery conditions on roads and sidewalks, so drivers and pedestrians are reminded to use caution.
