JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP OCT NOV DEC Month Based on preliminary data from Environment Canada ALBERTA 1993 TEMPERATURE DEPARTURES ,(Average for 41 Climate Stations) December'93 was warm and dry Above normal temperatures and below normal precipitation describes December weather in all regions of Alberta says Alberta Agriculture's weather resource specialist. 'The average monthly temperature for the province, based on data from 41 weather stations, was degrees warmer than the 1951 to 1980 average of °C," says Peter Dzikowski of the conservation and development branch. Peace River had an average monthly temperature of °C, degrees warmer than its 1951 to 1980 normal. Calgary also recorded a warm December with an average temperature degrees above the long-term average. As might be expected, the coldest average temperature in December was recorded in northern Alberta. However, High Level's °C average was degrees warmer than normal. December's monthly precipitation was below normal for most of the province. "Only two locations, both in the foothills, had above normal precipitation," notes Dzikowski. Edson reported mm of precipitation which is 143 per cent of normal. Rocky Mountain House received mm, about 2 mm above their monthly normal. The Crowsnest Pass received the most precipitation in December at mm, about normal for southwestern Alberta. The Peace and central regions reported between 10 and 25 mm of precipitation, about 25 to 75 per cent of normal. In agricultural areas, Onefour reported the lowest total precipitation mm.
