Spring Rollercoaster: Warm Weekend, Snowy Night

0:00It's April 9. You're listening to Vancouver News today, AI-powered local news. I'm Corey with the story. Southern Alberta is gearing up for a classic spring roller coaster in the weather. Kicking off Thursday, April 9, 2026, Calgary hits a daytime high of 7 degrees Celsius under mixed sun and clouds, cooler than the normal 10 degrees. Westerly winds kick in strong, boosting those temps to 14 degrees Celsius Friday and Saturday, bringing us a nice warm stretch. Late Saturday, a low pressure system clashes with that air, sparking rain that flips to snow along the foothills and sprinkles Calgary overnight. But with services still warm from the heat, no snow sticks to roads or causes headaches. Sunday drops back to 5 degrees Celsius before temps rebound into double digits on Monday. Plan those outdoor plans around the warm weekend window and keep an eye on updates as this system moves through.
