Calgary and other parts of Alberta are in the midst of one of the warmest and driest winters on record, prompting concerns about water supply and fire risk heading into spring and summer this year.
The city saw temperatures roughly 7 C above average throughout December — making it the warmest final month of the year on record, according to Environment and Climate Change Canada data. The year as a whole was Calgary’s second warmest ever and also its eighth driest, receiving about two-thirds of its normal precipitation
