Warm Dry Weather To Continue with Thunderstorm Chances

Potential for Thunderstorms exist over The southern Portion of the province on Sunday as a Low pressure System Flattens the ridge

Precipitation will continue to be non existent over Southern Manitoba as the Warm Temperatures persist and the ridge in the jetstream holds it's place over the Province. Mainly sunny Skies daytime temperatures near 30C and nightime t
emperatures in the teens can be expected over the next 24 hours as a few low pressure systems travel through Northern Manitoba, leaving the rainy weather up there. Humidity levels will be lower and more comfortable today and through the rest of the weekend.

As for our precipitation not much can be expected in the region, although there will still be a couple chances but general amounts will be fairly low. The Chances look like they will be on Sunday as a low pressure system moves eastwards out of Saskatchewan through the Interlake Areas and parts of the Red River Valley. A Weather Moment Noted that "Models are suggesting that a band of nocturnal thunderstorms will push into Southern Manitoba on Saturday night and push eastwards before dying around mid-morning." After the storms clear out, nicer weather will be on the menu with sunny skies and beautiful temperatures near 30C.

Next Week Looks to Continue to Be Hot and Sunny with Thunderstorm Chances returning for the middle of the week into the second half of the week. Details on the thunderstorm potential remains unclear as this is still quite far off. I can tell you if a cold front or trough moves through the region with hot and/or humid weather and with extreme instabilty in place then there would be a risk of severe storms. All given that the cap (warm layer of air at the surface) is not too strong. If you are looking for severe weather chances I would bet on Thursday being the day, in Southern Manitoba as NOAA Weather Models Suggest a trough or front of some kind moving through.

Until then enjoy the Nice Weather, I will be away on Holidays and will not be able to update until the 27th of July or later. Follow my weather Links on the side bar of my blog for weather information while I'm away...
