Friday

We’ll see rain through most of the day today for a variety of different reasons as the day progresses, but overall rain, at times heavy, will begin this morning and then persist through much of the day. By the evening hours we’ll be moving into the wrap-around precipitation associated with this system which will give us some steadier, but lighter, rain through the overnight period. Accompanying the rain will be strong north-easterly winds, as high as 50–60km/h with gusts as high as 75km/h. All in all, it will be a pretty miserable day with a high of only 12°C. We’ll drop to a low of around 6°C overnight and will likely see between 20–30mm of additional rainfall by Saturday morning.

Saturday & Sunday

A few showers lingering around on Saturday morning will taper off as the system pulls of into Northern Ontario, leaving us with clearing skies through midday into the afternoon. We’ll end the day with sunny skies and a high near 15°C with light winds. Saturday night will be a cool night with clear skies and a low of 4°C. Sunday will be mainly sunny with temperatures a carbon copy of Saturday.

Next Week

At this point, it’s looking like we’ll actually see a chance to dry out. It looks like there will be a slight chance of some showers mid-week over the southern portions of the SW MB & the Red River Valley, but amounts would only be around the 2–5mm mark. All in all, it’s looking quite dry through the next 7 days.
