A fluctuating late-March weather pattern is set to keep residents on their toes this week, as mild conditions give way to a burst of snow and cold before a gradual return to spring-like temperatures.<\/p>\n
Monday brings a mix of sun and cloud across the city, with a 30 per cent chance of late-day flurries or rain showers. Southerly winds will strengthen through the day, gusting up to 40 km\/h and pushing temperatures to a high near 4 Celsius . However, the morning will feel considerably colder, with wind chills around minus-6 C.<\/p>\n
Clouds thicken tonight, with a continued chance of scattered precipitation early in the evening. Winds will shift sharply from south to north before easing, as temperatures fall to minus-7 C and wind chills dip near minus-14 C overnight.<\/p>\n
A more significant shift arrives Tuesday, when snow is expected to begin around midday and persist into the night. Daytime highs will struggle to reach minus-5 C, with brisk conditions making it feel closer to minus-14 C in the morning. Snowfall continues overnight with a low of minus-10 C.<\/p>\n
Midweek conditions remain firmly wintry, as periods of snow linger through Wednesday with a high near minus-7 C. Colder air settles in overnight, dropping temperatures to minus-14 C.<\/p>\n
Relief arrives later in the week. Thursday will see a mix of sun and cloud and a high of minus-3 C, marking the start of a warming trend. By Friday, sunshine returns with temperatures climbing to 5 C.<\/p>\n
The weekend is expected to bring more seasonable conditions, with a mix of sun and cloud and highs reaching 7 C Saturday and 8 C Sunday, a welcome sign that spring is beginning to take hold.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A fluctuating late-March weather pattern is set to keep residents on their toes this week, as mild conditions…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":410198,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194294],"tags":[49,48,23752],"class_list":{"0":"post-555729","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-edmonton","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-edmonton"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/555729","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=555729"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/555729\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/410198"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=555729"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=555729"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=555729"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
