Summary

High-pressure will bring dry skies and a slight warm-up Fri through Sat AM. Around midday on Sat, a cut-off low pushes into the AB Rockies out of the N/NW, creating widespread instability. As this low pushes southward on Sun and Mon, it will draw colder air from the E/NE, creating periods of upslope snowfall. Sunshine, Norquay, and Nakiska could see up to 25 cm add up by Mon PM.
