Edmonton weather: Orange you happy this Mother's Day?

Currently Sunday morning, it’s 3 C at the Edmonton Blatchford station, with 13 km/h winds coming out of the west.

The best way to carry blue, like our skies so far the Mother’s Day, is with a burst of orange, right Oilers fans? Clear morning skies are forecast to cloud over later but nothing can overshadow the blinding bright of playoff buzz that Edmonton will snatch Game 4 from the Kings in LA Sunday night. May we all mother our love for moms and dads who guide us…and give a nod to those of our golden boys, on the cusp of what may be the Oil’s next Golden Age.
