Customizing Weather and Coming Events

In the Information tab, you'll find weather information and a list of coming events. Both the weather information and coming events can be customized.

Weather
Select your community from the drop-down menu under the "Current Weather" section. If your community is not listed, click on the "Other Locality" link. You'll see the current and next day's weather for your area.



For more weather information, click on RTW Weather & Climate Page. You'll find more forecast information, along with links to data on temperature, precipitation, and frost.




Coming events
You can view a more complete list of coming events by click on the "More Events" link, or by visiting www.agriculture.alberta.ca/events.

By selecting either an audience or location from the drop-down menus on the left, you can tailor the list of events to your farming operation or community. You can also use the calendar to jump ahead to events later in the year.
