Abstract
A study was made of winter temperatures to determine the frequency of chinook days in Alberta. The resulting pattern shows a maximum frequency along a line just east of the front range of the mountains, with the frequency decreasing slowly eastward. But a careful analysis of the Calgary‐Red Deer‐Drumheller triangle shows that the frequency is influenced by local topography and that the warm air at times overrides a pool of cold air in a valley to appear at high elevations to the east.
