Spring comes early on Canada’s west coast, with February seeing the arrival of tulips and temperatures on average staying above O°C (32°F). Elsewhere in the country, spring starts in April and goes to June. But never take this season for granted. On April 14, 2017 we experienced a massive snow storm in Edmonton, Alberta. April usually sees the last of the winter’s snow, except in higher altitudes like Banff or Whistler, both popular ski destinations where the season doesn’t end until May.
