We've only been in the 20s once in the past five days in Edmonton but that pattern is about to change.
We'll climb into the low to mid 20s for afternoon highs today and through the rest of week, although we're off to a crisp start today with temperatures in the 2 to 5 C range early this morning in the region.
Morning sun will give way to a mix of sun and cloud for this afternoon and the wind will start to pick up.
We'll have gusts around 30 km/h midday and 30-40 km/h gusts through the afternoon.
There's a pocket of showers in NW Alberta that will weaken as it moves ESE. I think any lingering midday showers should be fairly scattered and will probably pass north of the city.
So, the best chance for a shower or thunderstorm in Edmonton and area will be this evening or late tonight.
Each of the next four days has a least a chance of a shower or thunderstorm, but those should be hit and miss.
The most likely timing would be in the afternoon or evening hours Wednesday/Thursday.
Friday and Saturday both look like they could feature some showers earlier in the day, but the confidence on precip for those days is still pretty low.
Elsewhere around Alberta: fog in east-central AB will burn off quickly this morning.
Areas from Red Deer south through Calgary and Lethbridge have a slight chance for some severe thunderstorms later today.
Here's the forecast for Edmonton and area:
Today - Sunny this morning. Mix of sun & cloud this afternoon.
Wind becoming south 20 gusting to 40 km/h midday and this afternoon.
