Snow is expected to end this afternoon in Chestermere, Alberta, as weather conditions begin to improve on March 12, 2026. According to Environment Canada, the morning snow will change to a mix of sun and cloud with a daytime high of -3°C.
The change in weather follows a morning that included a risk of freezing rain across the region. Local drivers should stay cautious on the roads, as surfaces may still be slippery from the earlier mix of ice and snow.
The City of Chestermere is also reminding residents to be careful around the lake and local ponds. Officials note that floating ice is never 100 per cent safe, regardless of how thick it may appear.
Residents are encouraged to check official ice thickness reports before participating in any winter activities on the water. The city advises everyone to wait for official municipal confirmation of safety before heading onto the lake ice.
