A look at today’s Edmonton weather by Environment Canada.
For the next couple of days, it’s going to be a mix of sun and cloud and a chance of snow.
So if you were thinking that you could hang up that shovel you’re going to have to wait a little bit.
Staying warm is a little easier with a high today of -5 C but the wind is still expected to be gusting to 50 km/h at times this morning.
I turned on my space heater when I woke up and it now makes a screaming noise, so I guess it’s back to just using a blanket to stay warm.
