Okotoks weather
Okotoks sits in the Sheep River valley south of Calgary, and the valley setting matters: cold air settles into it overnight, so frost can arrive here earlier in the autumn than in the city.
Right now in Okotoks: mostly cloudy, 1°C (feels like 1°C), wind W 14 km/h. Today's high 11°C, low 1°C. Tomorrow 14°C / 3°C, 0% chance of precipitation.
No hail signal in the model for roughly the next 12 hours.

What the weather is like in Okotoks
It is also far enough south that a storm system clipping Calgary can miss Okotoks entirely — and the other way round.
Okotoks is built along the Sheep River, south of Calgary, and the town takes its name from the Blackfoot word for rock — a reference to the Big Rock, the huge glacial erratic just west of town. The river valley is what shapes its nights: on clear, calm evenings cold air drains downhill and settles along the valley floor, so frost can show up here while Calgary stays just above freezing.
Its position south of the city matters in summer, too. Storm cells that form over the foothills often track across Calgary without reaching Okotoks, and the reverse happens as well, so a dry afternoon in the city says little about what is happening on the Sheep River.
