It’s my favourite season! Sweater weather!  I’m an Alberta girl and I love wearing my hoodies and sweaters. There is just something about a chilly, overcast day that begs for a cozy sweater, a comfy spot, and a good book. Today feels like the kind of day, you get to slow down and enjoy the simple things.

I’m not going to go all the way to say it’s actually going to be cold but chilly might be the correct word, especially after we were spoiled with some beautiful weather last week. It doesn’t look like we will be staying in this temperature range for too long so enjoy the cozy sweater weather while we have it.

Today will be mainly cloudy with a 30 per cent chance of flurries in the afternoon. Winds from the north will be around 20 km/h gusting to 40 km/h around noon. A high of 5 degrees today and a wind chill of -5 degrees this morning.

The wind will still make it feel chilly in the morning, so Lisa should plan on wearing a coat.
