EDMONTON -- A cool morning across the Edmonton metro region this morning with temperatures in the 0 to 4 degree range.

EIA (always with a bit of a cold bias) even slipped below zero.

 

But, it'll warm up quickly with sunny skies and a 15-20 km/h west wind.

Temperatures should be in the low to mid-teens by lunch and we'll get to around 18 degrees for a high later today.

Wind will occasionally gust to around 30 km/h.

 

Wednesday looks to be the warmest day with a high of 20 or 21.

Wind looks calm for much of the day and then picks up later in the afternoon as the cloud cover increases.

A low pressure system will develop near Drayton Valley late in the day and then move east.

That system may set off some showers in central and north-central AB Wednesday night.

 

LONG Range - Highs in the 16 to 20 range and Sunny-to-Partly Cloudy skies for Thu/Fri/Sat.
