Rain starting Wednesday night will turn to snow on Thursday morning... a lot of it. Temperatures are also going to drop. Normally March in #YEG gets 16.8mm of precipitation; about 15.2mm is what we have for the month so far. #abstorm

More snow moving into the #YEG area. The city sits under a WIND WARNING and BLOWING SNOW ADVISORY. Snow and winds up to 90Km/h may make for poor visibility. #abstorm

What the heck is a snow squall? It's not a common term in this neck of the woods, but Albertans around Edmonton and to the north of the city should prepare for some sudden, blustery weather on Thursday. @phildweather explains what is to come. #yegwx #abstorm #yeg

Welp, winter weather is here. After waking up to a fresh dump of the white stuff on Thursday, the Edmonton region is set to get around 15 cm of snow through the weekend. #yeg #yegwx #abstorm trib.al/i5hqdH9

Keep that shovel and snow brush handy: the snow that has fallen in parts of Alberta so far this week could be just a dress rehearsal for what's to come on the weekend.
