There's a saying some people use - "If you don't like the weather, just wait 5 minutes". Well let me tell you, it ought to be trademarked by Calgary.
In winter, we experience Chinook winds that can take the temperature from -20C (-4F) to +15C (59F) in a couple hours.
But today was a perfect example of why we should claim the trophy for weather weirdness. Check the temperature graph - it was 28C (82F) yesterday. Today it even made it to almost 26C, then at 4pm a north wind came up and BOOM!, the mercury fell to 15C in less than 10 minutes. It's just above 8C (46F) as I write this and I have seen reports of snow falling in the Rockies (near Canmore). It took a mere 4 hours for the temperature to fall 18C (64F). Allow me just to remind people that it is July.......
