Environment and Climate Change Canada issued the warning on Friday, saying the snow will begin falling throughout the day, intensify on Saturday morning and continuing through until Sunday morning.
On its website, the City of Calgary warns that residents should be prepared for winter conditions on their weekend commutes.
“Bundle up, and leave plenty of time to arrive at your destination.”
Calgary clears snow-covered roads using a Priority Snow Plan.
Crews spend the first 18 hours after snow stops falling tackling Priority 1 routes, including roads with more than 20,000 vehicles per day, like Crowchild Trail, as well as downtown cycle tracks.
Deerfoot Trail and Stoney Trail are maintained by the provincial government.
