What the weather is like in Canmore
The valley walls drive a large day-to-night temperature swing, conditions can change within the hour, and snow arrives earlier and stays later than anywhere else on this map except Banff and Kananaskis.
Canmore lies on the floor of the Bow Valley under the Three Sisters, Ha Ling Peak and Mount Lady Macdonald, about 100 km west of Calgary on the Trans-Canada Highway. The valley walls do two things to its weather: they shade the town early on winter afternoons, and they trap cold air overnight, which is why the gap between the daily high and the overnight low is so much bigger here than in the city.
Because Canmore sits inside the mountains rather than out on the prairie, conditions can differ sharply from Calgary on the same day. A chinook that warms the city is often felt here as a strong, gusty west wind, and a storm pushing up against the foothills may leave Calgary snowy while Canmore stays dry — or the reverse. If you are heading out for the day, this reading is the one to check.
