Alberta Is Having The Most Glorious Fall Weather & It Might Stick Around Until December

We really needed this. 😌
Contributor

Usually, by now, we're pulling out our coziest sweaters and getting ready to hibernate. However, Alberta fall weather has been warmer than usual and Environment Canada is predicting it might stick around until December.

If you're loving this warm weather, there's a very good chance this trend will last until the last month of the year, according to our national weather agency's seasonal prediction system.

September was snow-free for much of Alberta and according to the ECCC Weather Alberta twitter account, Edmonton had its warmest September since 2013 with an average high of 18.8 C.

Calgary kicked off the month at 24 C, making it the hottest October day in the past decade, according to Calgary Weather Records.

But be warned, that doesn't mean we won't see a few cooler days, this is Alberta, after all.

Environment Canada's weather forecast currently shows temperatures will take a bit of a dip across parts of the province over the Thanksgiving long weekend.

ECCC climate website shows the average high for October in Calgary is 11.7 C with a low of -1.4 C. In Edmonton, the average high for the month is 10.4 C with a low of -0.2 C.
