The temperature early Saturday morning at Edmonton Blatchford station is 0 C, with 2 km/h winds coming out of the south, southwwest.
How does one have a day that starts at 0 C then heats to a magnificent 15 C before possibly turning naughty, with rain and winds gusting to 40 km/h? April in Alberta, that’s how! And how does one enjoy all the weather in one day? Layer up and get in it! You can never know the sights you will see nor the gains you will make unless you punch up, immerse. Will you see a trained bird of prey and its master? Will your legs get faster? Will you grow, feel more loved than the fine bloom of an Aster? All on the same day? I attest. And the best… possibly highs in the 19 C range by Monday. Lucky are we, chiseled by weather, more sunshine ahead.
