Speaking from the perspective of someone just an hour from the Rockies, the climate here on the Canadian prairies is sort of like this:

Winters: generally around 0c, +/- 5 degrees. We will have a couple of weeks of real cold, rarely hitting below -20c. And when they do happen, a wonderful phenomenon called a Chinook will come off the mountains and can take the temp from -20c to +10c in a single day! Snow doesn’t stay all that much. It’s currently almost non-existent. January to March are the snowier months. And wet snow.

Spring: short! Somewhat rainy, windy, and temperatures will be 10-20c. May long weekend it will snow. Always happens.

Summer – May to September, with most temps around 20-25c, and two or so weeks of over 30c.

Fall – a strange season, often warm and mild, with not much to complain about

 

All of these seasons have been dramatically affected by climate change in the past 15 years. Back then, I didn’t need AC at night in summer, as the cooling from the mountains would drop a 25c summer day to 10c overnight. That doesn’t happen anymore. So AC is needed. The lack of snow is causing droughts. As are the receding snowpack in the mountains proper, and glacial recession.

That’s the weather from Alberta
