A new forecast revealed that Alberta's weather is expected to warm up.
Frigid arctic air is moving out and spring-like weather is moving in with temperatures above freezing and even over 10 C in some places!
According to The Weather Network, a warm-up is on the way after a bout of extreme cold blanketed the Prairies with wind chills of -50 C.
Polar air is still lingering across Alberta and extreme cold warnings are in effect through Wednesday, February 19.
But then the extreme cold will finally start to ease.
That's because a shifting pattern off the coast of B.C. will allow Pacific air to flow into the Prairies, causing "a rapid change" in temperatures by the end of this week.
Warmer air is expected in Alberta starting on Thursday, February 20.
