Plan for a chilly day in Edmonton: the live forecast above shows below-seasonal readings, so bundle up before heading out. A northwest wind and partly cloudy sky will keep the capital region feeling brisk, especially near the North Saskatchewan River valley.
What is driving Edmonton’s weather today?
A broad ridge of high pressure over northern Alberta is pulling cool Arctic air southward, while a weak trough to the east keeps cloud cover in place. Edmonton sits on the western edge of the cloud band, meaning the city will see a mix of sun and high cloud through the afternoon. Winds from the northwest at 15 to 25 km/h add a wind-chill factor that makes the air feel several degrees colder than the thermometer reading.
How does today compare to seasonal norms?
Mid-November highs in Edmonton typically hover near 0°C. The live forecast above indicates temperatures running a few degrees below that mark, which is consistent with the recent pattern of early-winter chill. Overnight lows will dip well below freezing, so if you are commuting or walking pets after sunset, plan for frosty conditions. No precipitation is expected, but patches of ice on untreated sidewalks remain possible from earlier melts.
Will Edmonton see any snow today?
No snow is in the forecast for Edmonton today. The dry air mass from the north keeps skies mostly clear to partly cloudy, with only a slight chance of flurries moving in late tonight as a weak disturbance passes.
What is the best time to be outside today?
Mid-afternoon, between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m., will offer the mildest temperatures and the most sunshine. Even then, dress in layers because the wind chill will make it feel cooler than the actual high.
How does this weather affect driving on the Anthony Henday?
Dry roads and no precipitation mean normal driving conditions on the Henday and other main routes. However, overnight frost could leave elevated sections slick early in the morning, so allow extra stopping distance.
