Seasonal Weekend Conditions

Winnipeg will see the seasonal conditions over the region continue through the weekend.

The weather will be slow to change in Winnipeg as a slow-moving ridge combines with another push of cooler air from the north. Daytime highs in the city will hover around the 6 or 7 °C mark for the next few days with lows dipping below freezing each night.

Skies will be variably cloudy over the coming days between a combination of small bands of lake effect stratus and a more organized area of cloud slumping southwards. The forecast has no rain or snow, though, with dry conditions continuing through the weekend.

Cool nights will continue through the weekend with morning lows as cool as the mid-minus single digits.

Winds will also stay light out of the north, shifting easterly by Sunday, thanks to the slow-moving area of high pressure over the province. Breezier conditions may develop late Sunday into Monday as an area of low pressure starts pushing towards the province.

Long Range Outlook

Temperatures will shift into a seasonably mild pattern next week as the high over low block over the central Arctic collapses, allowing milder Pacific air to spill eastwards across the Prairies. Highs will shift back itno the low teens with lows climbing back above freezing. Some rain showers may be possible on Tuesday and Wednesday while the rest of the week looks dry.

Today’s seasonal daytime high in Winnipeg is 8 °C while the seasonal overnight low is -2 °C.
