Yes, Environment Canada is forcasting snow for Calgary tonight… http://weatheroffice.ec.gc.ca/scripts/citygen.pl?client=eccdn_e&city=yyc
Eat your hearts out, you sweaty southerners.
Only in Canada eh Fyodor? 
Well duh! No, “forcast” is not one of those different Canadian spellings. It should be “forecast”. I will now go hit myself on the “forehead” with a dictionary three times.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
I just booked my vacation near Calgary (Banff) for about a month from now. It was supposed to be cool weather - not horrible, freezing, snowy weather. Merely cool.
It won’t be snowing in Banff yet in a month, amarinth. It snows for one day, melts when it hits the ground, then goes away until it’s seasonal.
I lived most of my life in the Calgary-Banff corridor, and I can tell you that ‘real’ snow and cold doesn’t come and stick around until October. In fact, last year in Canmore we didn’t even have snow yet at Halloween.
What is this “snow” of which you speak?
Today’s sports section of the Raleigh, North Carolina News and Observer had an article that featured a girls high school softball team from Alaska, in town for a tournament. However, the team was fairing poorly in our 35 Celcius degree heat (95 F), had lost all of their games, and even had to forfeit their last game when they became overheated.
It’s 7C and raining like a banshee in Edmonton. It’s chilling to the bone and I hate it!
Oops, didn’t look far enough before I started my rant about the crappy run of weather Alberta has been having. Oh well, here’s my rant.
We were up around 98 F (37 C) today, with humidity something like 90%. I worked up a good frothy sweat just breathing. Tonight’s low is forecast to be about 77 F (25 C).
I can’t even imagine being cold. I can barely imagine not sweating.
Somehow I don’t envy you the snow, though.
I, for one, am in the mood for some snow; it was 100 yesterday, 99 the day before and I don’t think it got below 80 last night. 
Well, it got down to 1 degree Celcius last night and it’s a very cold morning. I’m sheltered down in the river valley so we got no snow but the newspapers’ front pages both show big colour pictures of the five-six inch snow dumps at higher elevations and west of the city. The town of Banff reports people walking around in toques and gloves.
Don’t worry amarinth, it’s just a huge and unusual weather system that’s spinning cold air down to these parts. Summer will return and late August / early September can be fabulous sunny weather and crystal clear skies in the Banff and mountain parks area. I bicycled from Banff to Jasper and back one year during the last week of August and I swear there was no wind and not a cloud in the sky for six days straight.
32 degrees here in the “States” this morning.
::sniff, my poor tomatoes::
'Course, that would be 0 for you folks up North.
I was going to ask if they were a cultivar that can’t take the heat.
Could some one please PLEASE let me live with them in Calgary???
I gotta get out of Ontario…
sigh
Larry, it’s a kind of congealed rain. I’m sure you’re familiar with rain.
sheesh - keep talking like that, Larry, and Vancouver’s 2010 Olympic bid goes down in flames! and it’ll be your fault!
I’m dying here in the heat and humidity. I am sorely going to miss Calgary winter this year.
Sigh. Maybe I’ll go visit Larry and get in on some of that rain.
Here’s a link to the front page of the Globe and Mail newspaper, with a charming photo of Ceilidth the donkey, obviously a Celtic donkey, out in the snow in her corral at Cremona just outside of Calgary.
