Also looked up the Calgary normals on the MSC site
(www.weatheroffice.ec.gc.ca) - Calgary has a mean of 0.4 days per
month in August with a maximum under 10 (or, looking at it another
way, one every 2.5 years on average).

I take it this is because Calgary is (I think I'm right) at high
altitude? 9C for somewhere remote from a cold ocean in August
certainly does seem very low indeed.
