A bit of fresh snow on the ground in and around the Edmonton area this morning.

Further south, we have freezing rain warnings in effect for areas from Rocky Mountain House/Red Deer east towards Coronation.

That freezing rain will stick around for a few hours and then flip to some snow later this morning.

 

The Edmonton region gets 3-6cm of snow by this afternoon and then the snow tapers off later today.

Parts of East-Central Alberta could get 5-10cm of snow today with the snow ending in that region tonight.

 

Another shot of snow tracks across Northern Alberta tonight and early Saturday.

The Peace Country gets a risk of freezing rain or snow late tonight.

Most (probably all) of the snow will be north of Edmonton Saturday morning. But, there's a slight risk of a few flurries early in the day.

NE Alberta gets some light snow Saturday morning.

 

Brace for a big cooldown next week.

Daytime highs will drop into the -5 range by Tue/Wed in Edmonton.

AND...-5 to -10 range highs look likely for the end of next week.
