The weather this week will start out mild, with temperatures in the mid to upper single digits. However, cooler conditions are on the way later in the week, so enjoy it while it lasts!
Today will be pleasant, with temperatures in the mid to upper single digits over southern Manitoba. Skies will remain mainly sunny, with generally just some upper-level cloud cover passing through. Winds will be easterly at about 20 km/h.
Tuesday will remain mild, with temperatures once again in the mid to upper single digits. A weak disturbance will bring a chance of flurries or showers to southern Manitoba; no significant accumulations are expected, but it will be a drearier day. To our south a much stronger system will be passing through the central US Plains, but it is not expected to significantly affect southern Manitoba. Winds will be northerly at 20-30 km/h.
Wednesday will be slightly cooler than temperatures earlier in the week, with highs in the mid single digits. Skies are expected to turn mainly sunny again though, making for a generally nice day. Winds will be northerly at about 20 km/h.
Long Range
The long range forecast is a bit uncertain at this time, but overall it doesn’t look great. Models suggest that a much colder air mass will surge down from the north late this week, bringing with it below seasonal temperatures. This colder pattern is expected to stay with us as we move into early April.
