Heavy Snowfall Warning Issued for Edmonton – Brace for a Winter Blast!
Alright, folks, if you haven’t heard yet, winter isn’t quite ready to let go just yet! A snowfall warning has been issued for Edmonton and much of central Alberta, and it looks like we’re in for a serious dose of snow over the next 24 hours. If you’ve been enjoying the slightly warmer weather recently, well, time to dig out those snow boots and shovels again!
According to Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC), we’re expecting between 10 to 20 centimeters of snow by Thursday evening. That’s right—by the time you wake up tomorrow, the city could be covered in a thick, fresh layer of snow. The storm is set to start early Thursday morning and will continue throughout the day, making roads and sidewalks slippery and difficult to navigate.

If you’re planning to drive, be extra cautious! The warning states that highways, roads, walkways, and parking lots will likely become tricky to maneuver due to the accumulating snow. Morning and evening rush hour traffic could see some significant delays, so plan ahead and give yourself extra travel time. Winter driving conditions can be hazardous, so make sure to slow down, leave plenty of space between vehicles, and keep an emergency kit in your car just in case.
For those who rely on public transportation, be prepared for potential delays as well. Snow accumulation can impact bus schedules and road conditions, so keep an eye on transit updates. If possible, consider working from home or adjusting your schedule to avoid the heaviest snowfall periods.
As always, it’s a good idea to check in on elderly neighbors or those who may need help clearing their driveways and walkways. Heavy snowfall can be a challenge for many, and a small act of kindness can go a long way.

So, Edmonton, get ready—winter isn’t done with us just yet! Stay warm, stay safe, and if you can, maybe even enjoy the snowy scenery before it melts away again. We’ll keep you posted with any further updates!
