Not just for the day, but for the entire month of October.

2 Oct 2018 – A record-breaking 15 to 25 cm of snow fell in Calgary overnight, said CBC meteorologist Christy Climenhaga. The previous record for Oct. 2 was set in 1954 with only about five cm.
“But the all-time extreme record for one day in October is about 30 centimetres (12 inches) in 1914, so you guys are on your way to breaking that,” said Climenhaga.
By 4:30 p.m., parts of the city had reported 40 cm (16 inches), the city said in a release.
