We’ll get an early taste of winter today as an arctic high settles in over Manitoba.
Monday
Mainly Sunny
-10°C / -15°C
Today will be a cold day by early November standards. Temperatures will remain well below zero for the duration of the day thanks to an arctic high over the region. Thankfully the wind won’t be very strong, which is some slight consolation for what will otherwise be a rather algid day.
Tuesday
Mainly Sunny
-2°C / -6°C
Temperatures will begin to recover on Tuesday as a surge of warmer air begins pushing in from the west. Temperatures on Tuesday will be around or just below zero in Southern Manitoba, with a breezy wind out of the south-west.
Wednesday
Increasing Cloudiness
4°C / -2°C
Wednesday looks to be one of the warmer days this week, with temperatures in the mid positive single digits. The wind will be from the west or south-west and skies will be on the cloudy side.
Long Range
The late week period looks to remain on the warm side, with daytime temperatures staying above zero. Weather models suggest that another push of arctic air may be on the way for next weekend, though we can always hope that the models are wrong. At least we can say that no significant snow is currently in the forecast – but as today’s weather has shown us, winter is certainly not far off.
