EDMONTON WEATHER

Edmonton has a northern mid-latitude climate with very long summer days (as much as 17 hours of daylight in June!), and winters that can be surprisingly enjoyable and always beautiful.  

Misconceptions exist about the severity of weather in Edmonton because of the city's northern latitude. But the reality is that Edmonton is further south than many major global cities (e.g. Moscow, Hamburg, Copenhagen, Oslo, Stockholm, etc.). Edmonton's inland location actually receives weather very similar in severity to that of Toronto, and significantly milder than the weather in Ottawa (according to Environment Canada's Climate Severity Index). In fact, Edmonton's zone 3 horticultural climate even accommodates the reliable gardening of azaleas, magnolias, table grapes, apricots and sugar maples!
