A persistent Upper Ridge looks like it'll keep most of Alberta locked into above average temperatures for the next 5-7 days (perhaps longer).

Eastern and NE Alberta might get a few ripples of colder air over the next week. 

But, most of the province stays warm.

 

In the Edmonton area, we'll get into the 0 to 5 degree range fora high this afternoon.

After today, highs will be in the 5 to 10 degree range for Thu/Fri and the weekend.

We're probably in that 5-10 range Mon/Tue as well.

 

Mainly sunny skies will dominate the forecast for the next 2 days.

The GFS model has a slight risk of some precipitation on Sunday.

The GEM doesn't have any precip for Edmonton between now and Dec 14.

I'll add in a SLIGHT risk of a rain/snow mix for Sunday and watch to see how that pattern develops.
