April 16th was cold. #yegwx #yeg
Its High of -0.5°C was our 5th coldest on record, and Low of -8.2°C was 6th coldest.
That made it our coldest April 16th since 1989, although 2002 was close.
The average High for mid-April is 10°C, and Low is -1°C.

With the #yegwx forescast for overnight and tomorrow, the #yegbike commute vehicle will be the winter beater. A 0's or 10's Mountain bike with studded tires. Not that the studs will necessarily be required, but with rain/slush/snow at below zero, a wise idea.
The summer folder has been great for this spring-like shoulder season, but 20 inch tires are not up to an inch or 2 of snow in whatever form or state.
The winter beater has not yet been put away, nor even has the fatbike. And if I we were in Grande Prairie or Grande Cache, it probably would be the fatbike tomorrow.
We shall see.
And I'm not upset by the weather forecast for tomorrow at all, unlike my drivist coworkers who seem to expect to perish in snowmaggedon tomorrow.
