A look at Wednesday’s weather in Edmonton from Environment Canada.

Currently it is -16 C at the Edmonton Blatchford weather station with winds of 7 km/h from the west, northwest and a wind chill of -20.

If I had a time machine, I’d jump in and go back to when it was 16.9C that day in 2009. Instead, I’m stuck living another day which looks like -20.

That being said, if I had a time machine, I could actually go back any time, any day. Obviously, I would choose to go back to a day when I was doing something much more fun than sitting at my desk on a cool November day. Maybe I would pick a day when I was enjoying a beach vacation with friends or returning to my favorite family vacation.

As for the weather today, it’s going to be cold. It starts to warm up as we head into the weekend, but the wind persists, which still makes it feel colder than it actually is.

Fortunately, we will have plenty of sunshine. It’s always a little more bearable when the sun is shining.
