After a dreary May long weekend for Calgary, a big blast of heat is forecast to be on the way for the city, bringing with it a decent temperature swing, too.
According to Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC), Calgary is forecast to see chillier temperatures this week, with a below-average high of 9°C today and periods of rain, before a brisk dip to an overnight low of 3°C tonight.
Tomorrow brings the chance of showers popping up in YYC with a daytime high of 11°C and an overnight low of 3°C.
Looking ahead to the end of the work week, a gradual warmup is on the way, with daytime highs reaching 16°C on Friday followed by 15°C on Saturday and 17°C on Sunday.
Things really start to heat up after the weekend, with Monday holding a stunning daytime high of 23°C, followed by a dazzling daytime high of 26°C for Tuesday.
When you do the math between Wednesday’s overnight low and Tuesday’s daytime high, that’s a wicked 23°C temperature swing. Fingers crossed this forecast holds up!
