Calgary’s weather today brings a mix of sun and cloud with a high near 8°C, though a gusty wind out of the northwest will make it feel cooler near the Bow River valley and the foothills. Overnight, temperatures dip to -3°C with a chance of flurries as a weak system slides through the region.
What is the outlook for the rest of the week?
Calgary sits in a transition zone between the Rocky Mountains and the Prairies, so conditions can shift quickly. Wednesday should see clearing skies and a high of 11°C, but by Thursday a stronger Pacific front brings rain mixing with snow and a high near 4°C. Winds may gust to 50 km/h Thursday afternoon, especially along the Deerfoot Trail corridor and near Nose Hill Park.
Is any precipitation expected in Calgary?
Scattered flurries are possible overnight and early Wednesday morning, mainly in the city’s northwest and near the Glenmore Reservoir. Accumulation will be light—less than two centimetres—and roads should remain mainly wet rather than icy. By Friday, the region dries out under partly sunny skies and a high near 9°C, typical for this time of year in southern Alberta.
Will the Chinook wind return this week?
No strong Chinook is expected. The mild northwest flow today will not produce the warm, dry downslope winds Calgary is known for. A cooler pattern takes hold by Thursday.
How does this compare to Calgary’s average April weather?
Today’s high of 8°C is slightly below the Calgary April average of 11°C. Overnight lows near -3°C are typical for early spring in the city, which often sees a mix of snow and sun.
Should I expect delays at Calgary International Airport?
No major delays are forecast. The light flurries overnight may cause minor visibility reductions, but winds are within normal operating limits. Check with your airline for updates.
