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

Saturday morning temperatures at the Edmonton Blatchford station measured 1.1 C with 8 km/h winds out of the northwest.

Say that five times fast.

It’s another above normal day with above normal temperatures as forecasters are calling for a high of 5 C under some mainly cloudy skies this morning, with a little sun later this afternoon. Sunday will be another above normally, normal day with a totally normal above normal high of 8 C.

But this is March and it can go either way. Spring one day, winter the next. Totally normal. Yup.

Normal or not, it’s gorgeous and I’ll take it. Get outside and enjoy!

Does Lisa need a coat (and mittens)?

Normally I might say yes but I think we’re good errrr normal.
