A look at today’s Edmonton weather by Environment Canada.

Break out the short, shorts, cut off those jeans and rip the sleeves off your favourite t-shirt!  It’s going to be gorgeous this week! Highs in the mid to high twenties and sunshine for days!

Finding ways to keep cool will be important this week. Maybe I’ll set up a kiddie pool in the backyard to dip my toes in while I work this week. It may be the only way to survive!
