Happy Friday! I hope you all had wonderful weeks. This week’s weather has been very typical of what we expect in early spring. A little bit of everything.

Today is much the same. Mainly cloudy with a 30 per cent chance of flurries which will change to a 60 per cent chance of showers or flurries in the afternoon. A high of plus five degrees.

Right now it is minus six degrees at the Edmonton Blatchford weather station and it feels more like minus 10 with the wind chill.

This weekend temperatures improve but we are expecting to see some precipitation so get out your rubber boots and go jump in some puddles.
