959.0. "Edmonton in September" by OSLLAV::TOR (Tor Krog, Network Services, Oslo Norway) Mon Aug 28 1995 04:04

Hi, I am travelling to Edmonton in a weeks time to visit some relatives.
Could somebody give me a hint on what the general weather conditions are
like in this area ? Temperatures ?

I will be going from Edmonton to Provost, down to Calgary and up through Banff
back to Edmonton. Is it still summer in Banff this time of year or should I
prepare for the first snow ?

	Thanks

959.1Weather is fine in Alberta !!CGOOA::BCLARKEMon Aug 28 1995 12:4811
    Tor,
    
    The weather is fine here in Alberta. It has been an unsettled summer,
    so I would prepare more for rain than I would snow. Snow really doesn't
    hit until November.
    
    Temperatures have been around 18 - 22 Degrees Celcius, not quite sure
    what that is in Farenhiet ?? Sorry.

959.2Speed limits ?OSLLAV::TORTor Krog, Network Services, Oslo NorwayTue Aug 29 1995 03:2912
	Thanks Brian, we use Celsius in Norway like the rest of the
	civilized world...

	Another question - what are the general speed limits for cars
	when travelling :

	a) Inside a city
	b) Between cities

	(in Km/h please :-))

959.3TROOA::SOLEYFall down, go boomTue Aug 29 1995 08:373
    In cities 50 km/h
    Between cities 100 or 110 km/h depending on location (in Alberta I
    think 110 is more common)

    Generally the speed limits are well posted. As a general rule, it's 50
    Km/H in the City and 100 Km/h on the highway.

959.5That was a great trip !OSLLAV::TORTor Krog, Network Services, Oslo NorwayMon Sep 18 1995 08:077
Came back this Saturday after 14 wonderful days in Canada, weather was
fantastic, and so were you Canadians.
I spent 4 days going through Banff/Jasper National Parks, they were just 
wonderful. I will recommend that trip to anyone.

	Regards
