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

Well, it looks like there’s just going to be sunshine and more sunshine in our future so time to get some lotion out of the basket and get your tan on.

The real heat looks to be coming in around Friday and over the weekend and by real heat, I mean temps in the 30s. Although to be honest as of me writing this right now it’s pretty darn warm in the house and I just recently moved my office back up to the top floor because I thought heatwaves were so last week.

Oops.

Oh well here’s the NEW trailer for Ghostbusters Afterlife! A movie that was made right here in Alberta.
