Winnipeg will see temperatures slowly drop towards seasonal values as several weak disturbances moving through the region draw cooler air southwards.
A blanket of low cloud entrenched over the region will keep temperatures seasonably mild in Winnipeg today. The city will see temperatures climb back to around -2 °C with light southeasterly winds. There’s a small chance of some flurries later today into the evening as a weak low moves across the region. The cloud cover should break up a bit tonight with light northeast winds and a low near -12 °C.
A ridge of high pressure will move across the region on Saturday and keep winds light. Temperatures will again be seasonably mild with highs recovering to around -4 °C. The city will see partly cloudy skies through the day. An approaching low will spread cloud into the region on Sunday night as temperatures head to a low near -8 °C.
A low pressure system crossing the province on Sunday will bring cloudy skies to Winnipeg. Temperatures will start off seasonably mild with a high near -6 °C, but a cold front will sweep through the Red River Valley midday and bring breezy northwest winds of 30–40 km/h behind it. This cold front will give a small chance of some light snow, then begin ushering in a much colder air mass. The cloud cover will break up on Sunday night with temperatures heading to a low near -22 °C.
Long Range Outlook
Winnipeg will start the new week with seasonably cold conditions, but by mid-week milder air pushes back into the region. It won’t be as warm as it has been, but highs could return to the mid-minus single digits.
Today’s seasonal daytime high in Winnipeg is -9 °C while the seasonal overnight low is -19 °C.
