Frost!!! It's been raining all day here and it should have been snow.
Looks like we won't get our usual last week of May snowstorm. Last
weekend
was the first official camping weekend and even the mountain campers
didn't
get snow, just some rain.

Official camping weekend? Is that a scheme for schools?

Victoria Day weekend is when most campgrounds open for the summer and
usually when the last ski hill (Sunshine) in Banff closes. It's also quite
common to get snow but not this year. We have just had two days of
continuous rain, very unusual in the Alberta desert. Looking to June, our
"wet" month. No TS yet despite forecasts. Solid cloud for days and my cell
is ringing two or three times a day warning of possible auroras. Typical.
