More cloud than sun AND cooler-than-average temperatures will dominate this Labour Day long weekend.
In Edmonton & area...we'll likely get some showers late Sunday into early Monday.
Further north, we might have a rain/snow mix in the High Level/Fort Chipewyan and possibly even the Fort McMurray region this weekend.
The mountain parks also get a chance of some wet snow this weekend.
That's not to say the whole weekend will be a write-off though.
Edmonton get some sun Saturday and temperatures will be in the mid to upper teens Saturday/Sunday.
So...that's not COLD. Just...a bit cooler than average.
The best chance for showers looks like it'll be late Sunday into Monday morning.
LONGER-Range - Mid-to-Upper Teen daytime highs stick around through to the end of next week.
There does appear to be some warmer weather (low 20s) that might move in for mid-September.
But...we'll wait to see if that turns out to be a "model mirage" or an actual pattern change.
