EDMONTON -- If you had to pick between cold and sunny weather or snowy and milder weather, which would you take?

Good news: If you're in Edmonton and area, no matter your answer, you get both.

 

Today's the sunnier and cold day.  Although, without much wind, it may actually FEEL a bit warmer than yesterday.

Temperatures are around -20 this morning and will climb to around -10 this afternoon.

 

NE Alberta sees the return of some snow today as a low pressure system backs in from northern SK.

 

Edmonton gets back to a chance of light snow or flurries tomorrow.

A system moves in from the WSW bringing some precipitation to areas from Edmonton south towards Red Deer in the morning.

East-Central AB gets a shot of some snow in the afternoon.

The expected track of this precip is a lot further north than yesterday and is subject to change again.

But, it looks like Edmonton is on the northern edge with anywhere between a dusting and 3 cm possible.

 

We get a bit milder for the weekend with highs near -5 (chance of flurries both days).

Then, a risk of some heavier snow Monday before returning to highs above zero Tue/Wed.
