A broad upper ridge will keep the jet stream well to the north over the next 5 to 7 days, keeping the frost away as seasonably mild temperatures stay across the region.

The weather will be quiet across southern Manitoba over the next several days as an upper ridge continues to sit over the region. Most areas will see a bit of cloud this weekend as an upper low passes through the Northern Plains of the United States, but almost all the rain associated with the system will stay south of the international border.

There will be slight chance of some light showers Saturday night into Sunday, but any amounts will be light and scattered. The upper low will begin to shift out of the region at the beginning of next week, taking the cloud with it, leaving behind mild temperatures to start the week.

Through this mild period, Winnipeg will see daytime highs in the upper teens or low twenties with overnight lows in the upper single digits.

Long Range Outlook

A cold front will push through the region mid-week, ushering cooler conditions. Daytime highs will drop towards the 10 °C mark with frost likely at least a couple times in the second half of the week. No hard freeze is in the forecast, but lows will likely dip just below freezing a couple times.

Before then, though, the weather will be quite pleasant. With the long weekend ahead, we hope you’re able to get out and enjoy some of that fall warmth before it disappears!

Today’s seasonal daytime high in Winnipeg is 15 °C while the seasonal overnight low is 3 °C.

Winnipeg will see near seasonal temperatures for the next couple days behind the cold front that moved through yesterday. On Sunday, warmer weather will begin to push back into the region.

An upper trough will sit over Manitoba for the next couple days and bring seasonal temperatures to much of southern Manitoba. Winnipeg will see daytime highs today and tomorrow near the 20 °C mark, which is seasonal normal high for this time of year. Overnight lows will be cool, driven down by an area of high pressure moving into the area.  Overnight lows will dip into the upper single digits tonight, and could reach as low as 2 to 4 °C on the edges of the city on Saturday night. Areas near the centre of the city will likely stay a couple degrees warmer than that.

On Sunday, the upper pattern will shift and a more zonal flow along the apex of an upper ridge in the United States will develop. This will bring warmer air into the region and send daytime highs back into the mid-20s. Lows should climb back to around the 10 °C mark on Sunday night. Skies will stay mainly sunny through the day.

Long Range Outlook

Temperatures will continue to warm for Monday with highs in the upper 20s possible. A cold front will push through later Monday, ushering near-seasonal temperatures back into the region for the rest of the week. Skies will likely trend towards the mixed to cloudy side of things with the chance of showers developing mid-week.

Today’s seasonal daytime high in Winnipeg is 20 °C while the seasonal overnight low is 7 °C.

Upper ridging will continue to bring hot and mainly sunny conditions to southern Manitoba over the next couple days. On Thursday, a passing low pressure system will bring some cloud to the region along with a chance of showers. Behind it, seasonal temperatures will return for the weekend.

Winnipeg will see plenty of sun today and tomorrow as an upper ridge pushes over the region. Daytime highs will climb into the upper 20s with comfortable humidity levels. The wind will pick up out of the northwest into the 30 to 40 km/h range today as a very weak cold front pushes through the region. The wind will ease tonight, then pick back up out of the southeast on Wednesday as a renewed push of warm air begins.

A low pressure system will develop over southern Saskatchewan on Wednesday, then push northeastwards into central Manitoba overnight. As it heads east, it will drag a warm front into southern Manitoba through the night. An area of instability will develop ahead of the front heading into the evening and bring some cloudier conditions and a chance of showers or thunderstorms to the region overnight. The warmer air pushing into the region combined with persistent southerly winds will also keep overnight lows quite mild on Thursday night, only bottoming out in the upper teens.

The instability may linger into Thursday morning before a cold front pushes through. Temperatures should reach the mid-20s before northwesterly winds pick up behind the front.

The cloud cover will break up a bit on Thursday evening, but more cloud will linger through Friday as the northwest winds continue to usher cooler air into the region. Temperatures should reach a near-seasonal high around 20 °C on Friday.

Long Range Outlook

Cooler temperatures will stick around through the weekend with highs in the upper teens or low twenties. Fortunately, the sun will make a return both Saturday and Sunday.

Next week should bring seasonal to slightly above seasonal temperatures with what looks like a chance for showers mid-week.

Today’s seasonal daytime high in Winnipeg is 20 °C while the seasonal overnight low is 8 °C.
