In the clear skies associated with the centre of the low isolated thunderstorms have formed due to daytime heating and cold unstable air aloft. Brief heavy snow or rain showers can occur with these isolated thunderstorms with a slight risk of pea-size hail occurring. However as the upper low starts tracking southeastwards this evening, a band of heavy snow will move into the City of Calgary and the Okotoks region. The snow will persist into Friday morning with snowfall amounts expected to be in the 10 to 25 centimetres range.The Banff and Kananaskis regions and western sections of the Airdrie regions can still expect further amounts of 10 to 25 centimetres by Friday morning while snowfall amounts will gradually taper off in the Jasper, Nordegg and Rocky Mountain House region by late this evening.
