Edmonton Weather: Be Dazzled, Dazzled, as the Heat Rises

Liam adam2022-07-10

It is 16°C at the Edmonton Blatchford weather station early Sunday morning, with winds of 9 km/h from the west, northwest.

It’s been a slow click-click-click on the rollercoaster, but we’re approaching the 30°C peak range! Be dazzled by 24 C on Sunday before blasting into 27 C for your Monday, then a dizzying 31 C acrobatic heat all around us on Tuesday. The carnival of clouds interspersing the last few days is moving away to make way for the hottest summer acts. Come in, free show, on foot, bike-wheel, flip turn, swing!
