It’s beginning to look a lot like...August? Some residents of the Rockies in Alberta and northwest Montana had to recall that it’s still summer this week as snow blanketed the northern Rocky Mountains reaching as far south as Glacier National Park.

The sunny days of summer seemed like a distant memory as frost advisories were issued and temperatures dipped to freezing.

According to weather.com senior meteorologist Jonathan Erdman, these conditions aren’t out of the ordinary for August.

"Late August snow in the Rockies, particularly the Canadian Rockies, is more typical than unusual. Just this past week, snow dusted the peaks in Colorado's Rocky Mountain National Park,” Erdman said.

In September 2014, Calgary was slammed with summer snow that took down hundreds of trees and left thousands of people without power.

Friday’s snow clung mainly to the higher elevations and definitely didn’t stop a few brave Canadians from taking full advantage of the situation at hand.

Despite all the excitement, the snow won’t stick around.

"This snow won't last long. A big warming trend, similar to the theme this summer, is in store for the Rockies through the coming week, squelching any thought of winter for the time being." Erdman said.

With only one month of summer remaining, Alberta may want to embrace that warmth while they have it.
