Is it really the last week of May?
Snowfall warnings have been issued for the city of Calgary, as well as Okotoks, High River, Claresholm, Airdrie, Cochrane, Olds, Sundre, and south through Pincher Creek, Fort MacLeod and into the Crowsnest Pass.
Meteorologist David Spence says we could see 10 centimetres in the city by Friday morning and 20 centimetres could fall in the foothills and mountains to the west of Calgary.
According to Environment Canada we have never had snowfall accumulations in Calgary on May 27 since records began in 1885.
Calls to our newsroom report snow is so heavy in some areas south of the city that the plows are out.
