The Alberta clipper strikes again!
So, if I had to say, probably 1-3 cm. That seems about right. Almost all the forecasts say a snowfall total of about 2 centimetres, starting this evening and ending overnight. The actual reason for this is a tiny little trough in the jet stream, which is from an Alberta clipper that is a lot farther south than you would expect. The area of precipitation is very thin, with it starting at Jasper, travelling north-northeast to Edmonton (Hey, that’s us!) and then basically straight east way off to Manitoba.
For the amount of snow on the ground that we wake up to tomorrow morning, it will vary from 0.5 to 1.5 centimetres. It really depends on how much time the surface soil temperature is above 0.
One more thing: Recaps are coming tomorrow for October and the strong heat wave!
