I will be moving to Calgary, AB in October. How cold is it? What should I wear?


Travel Info
I will be travelling any where from Trail-BC, Banff, and Cardston quite regularly but remained headquartered in Calgary. Does the weather change much between these locations? I will be outdoors alot, but will need to wear buissness attire. Any suggestions on proper clothing would be great.

Travel Tips
Well Calgary is funny in the winter because it can be -30 one minute and +15 the next. It's called a chinook. Trail and Banff are more consistantly cold in the winter because it is in the mountains. Cardston will be more similar to Calgary. all I can suggest is wearing layers and always bringing a pair of boots along with your dress shoes. Although I wouldn't be surprised if you find that no one else dresses up that much.

Others
Well Calgary it cooler than B.C but in Oct it can be anywhere from 20 degrees to -10 I would guess. In the winter they have chinooks because of the mountains which warms things up.
I would always carry an overcoat....winters in Calgary can be very harsh.If driving between these places be sure to have a blanket in the car,extra food and liquid and a cell phone.Also carry chains for the tires
