Alberta
Winter and summer, Alberta's daytime skies
are famous for staying blue. Due to it's northern latitude,
the province has over 16 hours of daylight during the summer
months. While Alberta has cold winters, even the lowest temperatures
are relieved by low humidity and warm "Chinook" winds, which
melt snow and bring people out in their shirt sleeves. In summer,
Alberta's temperatures average 20C (70F).
