Others gave more practical advice.
“April is usually mild, and things start to turn green, but expect a little snow that melts in one day. May is generally snow-free, but there is the occasional storm,” someone explained.
“May storms often break tree branches because the trees have leaves (more surface area) and the snow is sticky. It almost never snows in June.”
Another gave gardening advice, saying, “May long is a usual ‘safe’ marker. As someone who gardens, I start my veggies inside a few months before, and put them in the ground over the May long weekend.”

And for anyone hoping that April might look different, don’t get your hopes up. Environment and Climate Change Canada forecasts another below-average, high-precipitation month for Edmonton, so another spring snowstorm is certainly on the table!
