You’d better brace yourself
Good morning from the coulees — the wind's up, the sky's wide, and Lethbridge has something to say.
Look, you can feel it in the air, can’t you? That particular tension before the weather really turns. Environment and Climate Change Canada has issued multiple weather warnings for Lethbridge and the surrounding areas. We’re talking about three distinct warnings and two statements right now. The details are still coming in as the systems develop over the Oldman River basin, but this isn't just a breezy day out by the High Level Bridge. It's the kind of alert that makes you check your tires and clear your porch.
This is a dynamic situation, and it means the plains east of us, out past the irrigation canals, are also going to be impacted. We’re going to be watching the radar closely from the MiTL Sports Desk throughout the morning. Residents should prepare for significant changes in conditions, potentially affecting travel on highways like the Crowsnest Trail and across the city's various bridges. It’s always best to be ready when the weather decides to make a statement here.
Stay safe out there, Lethbridge.
Jolene Blackwater, MiTL Sports Desk.
