CALGARY – It made for miserable camping, hopeless gardening and forced the cancellation of all kinds of events.
Wet, cold weather caused problems all across Calgary, which, according to Environment Canada, saw a total of 21.8 mm of rain between 11 a.m. Saturday and 11 a.m. Monday.
Glencoe Golf and Country Club and Valley Ridge Golf Club were among those forced to close their greens on Sunday due to snow.

The cool weather and rain continued Monday, but, at least at Valley Ridge, some brave golfers took advantage of having the course almost to themselves.
“You take in huge divots, were you don’t really mean to,” golfer Jake Ericson said.
Rollercoaster weather also caused Calaway Park to close down their amusement park both Sunday and Monday.
Day two of Calgary Food Truck’s Picnic in the Village has also been postponed until Tuesday, when forecasters are calling for a return to more seasonal weather.
