Default Spring snow storm coming
Looks like a multi day southern Alberta snowstorm is on its way.

Hopefully it’s enough to help with boosting soil moisture and mountain snow packs.

Fingers crossed. Coming Tuesday night. Seems like a range of 10-50 cm. Heavy wet snow would be awesome.

50 cm of the heavy stuff would indeed be welcome.

Similar forecast around here.

Not too sure about the wet snow though. When that happens, power outages usually occur in this area.

But moisture will be good...

It won't happen or it will be just a dusting, why? I bought a snow blower 2 weeks ago.

I'll have to drive the back roads in it. Me, I would rather have rain.

Special weather statement issued for here, hate to say it but I'm looking forward to the moisture.
