A look at Wednesday’s Edmonton weather by Environment Canada.

It’s -9 C at the Edmonton Blatchford weather station Friday morning with 3 km/h winds from the south and a wind chill of -10.

A belated Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you all! We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas weekend, full of delicious food, contentious family conversations, and all the presents you asked for from Santa! Though, I’m guessing nobody wished for a heavy snowfall, because we’ll be ringing in the new year with lots of sun and cloud. Today’s forecast calls for a mix of sun and cloud with a high of 6 C and 20 km/h winds throughout the day and into the evening. Tomorrow’s forecast is almost identical, just with slightly lighter winds at 15km/h and a high of 5 C.
