Calgary weather is expected to stay unusually mild through the weekend, but strong winds could create difficult driving conditions across the city before easing Saturday morning.
Environment and Climate Change Canada issued a yellow wind warning for Calgary on Friday, November 6, with gusts between 90 and 100 km/h forecast through the afternoon, evening and overnight period.
The warning covers the City of Calgary and warns that strong winds could damage roofs, fences, branches and soft shelters, while loose outdoor objects may be blown around.

Calgary weather forecast for Saturday
Saturday, November 7, is expected to begin mainly sunny before clouds increase during the afternoon.
The forecast calls for a high of 13 C, with northwest winds of 40 km/h gusting to 60 km/h during the morning.
Environment Canada says those winds should become light near noon, reducing the most significant wind-related concerns for the afternoon.
Saturday night is forecast to clear, with winds becoming southeast at about 20 km/h during the evening.
The overnight low is expected to reach 6 C before temperatures rise toward morning.
The wind warning is expected to weaken gradually Saturday morning, although residents should continue checking for updated alerts before travelling.
What Calgary residents should expect overnight
Friday night was forecast to remain partly cloudy, with southwest winds of 30 km/h gusting to 50 km/h before shifting west at 70 km/h and gusting to 90 km/h near midnight.
The overnight temperature was expected to remain relatively mild at about 8 C.
Despite the mild temperature, strong crosswinds can make high-profile vehicles, trailers and motorcycles more difficult to control, particularly on exposed roads and bridges.
Drivers should allow extra space, reduce speed when necessary and be alert for debris or branches on roadways.
Residents with temporary structures, patio furniture, garbage bins or other lightweight items outdoors should secure them before the strongest winds arrive.
Mild conditions continue into next week
Calgary’s mild pattern is expected to continue into Sunday, when sunny skies and a high near 15 C are forecast.
Sunday night should be clear, but temperatures are expected to fall to about 1 C.
Monday is forecast to be sunny with a high near 10 C and an overnight low around 0 C.
Tuesday should remain sunny with a high near 11 C, followed by another mild day Wednesday with a forecast high near 18 C.
The normal high for Calgary in early November is about 4 C, while the normal low is near -7 C, meaning the coming weekend and much of the following week are expected to remain well above seasonal levels.
Calgary weather and travel plans
The strongest winds are the main short-term concern rather than snow or freezing rain.
Environment Canada’s forecast does not call for precipitation in Calgary on Saturday, and the outlook remains mainly dry through the middle of next week.
That combination of mild temperatures and dry conditions may support outdoor activities, but wind exposure will matter during the morning and early afternoon.
People heading out early Saturday should check the latest alert status, especially if their route includes open country, elevated roadways or areas prone to crosswinds.
Conditions should become more comfortable once winds ease around midday, although occasional gusts may continue in some areas.
