Cheerily, there’s a mix of sun and cloud with a high of 8 C in the cards. Crazy eights for much of the week ahead, in fact.

But in the same fall bluff, evening rain or flurries may shake out.

Overnight, you may become reacquainted with wind chill, minus 5, such as it is.

The sun will sprout again Tuesday, again the high to hit 8 C.

Fall’s surge to hold off winter continues Friday, double digit 10 C on deck.

If the seeming unseasonable conditions have you feeling off, note that Edmonton reached a high of 14.5 C this day in 2001 while the lowest low for the time was 2014, when -20.5 C was recorded. Officially, winter’s start is more than a month away, Dec. 21.

She’s taking her sweet time coming around the mountain but she comes. Winter, she will come.
