Calgary is well known for having very variable weather, with the possibility of extreme changes within a single day (it's said that you could be wearing a heavy coat for breakfast and shorts and a t-shirt for lunch). Calgary is also subject to the phenomenon of Chinook winds: warm winds that blow in over the mountains in the winder. They can raise the temperature by up to 15 degrees celsius in just a few hours and make it feel like spring in the dead of winter.

Temperature in the city has ranged from -45 C in the winter to a high of 36 degrees in the summer, but most of the time winter temps -15 to -5 degrees and the summer averages + 15 to +25 much of the time.

The air is very dry in Calgary so humidity is rarely a factor in the summer, but windchill can really affect coldness in the winter.
