The snowfall warning has now ended.

A heavy band of snow developed earlier in southern Alberta. 10-15 cm of snow was expected to fall before the snow tapered off in the afternoon

Rapidly accumulated snow did make travel difficult in some locations. Visibility was suddenly reduced at times in heavy snow. 

The warning encompassed: 

  • Mountain View Co. near Carstairs and Stirlingville
  • Mountain View Co. near Cremona and Water Valley
  • Mountain View Co. near Olds and Didsbury
  • Mountain View Co. near Sundre
  • Rocky View Co. near Airdrie and Crossfield
  • Rocky View Co. near Bottrel and Madden
  • Rocky View Co. near Cochrane

The warning came days after the 22 cm dump of snow on April 19th, which shattered an April 19th, 1955 record.
