Good morning from the coulees — the wind's up, the sky's wide, and Lethbridge has something to say.
Your umbrella won't help you today
Look, southern Alberta is under a series of active weather warnings this morning. While the specific details haven't been released by Environment Canada just yet, the MiTL intelligence monitors are flagging multiple alerts. This means folks waking up along the Oldman River valley, from the east side of the High Level Bridge all the way past the university on the west bluff, need to be ready for whatever the sky is cooking up. We're used to the wind here, it's a constant character, but 'warnings' usually mean something more than just a typical blow.
Be sure to: * Check your local forecasts as soon as they update. * Secure any loose items in your yard – the wind doesn't play nice. * Plan extra time for your commute, especially if you're crossing the coulees.
This is the kind of day that can change quickly, like a chinook arch disappearing behind a fast-moving cloud. Stay vigilant, Lethbridge. We'll keep you updated as more specific details come in from official channels.
