Summer Returns But With Storms

Finally the first hot couple of days are on the way as the warmth returns into SouthMB associated with a airmass from the Gulf of Mexico, however it comes with a price thunderstorms are likely and some could be severe as we go into the weekend. 

For the day ahead there will be a chance of showers and storms out in southwestern areas of southern manitoba and the parklands but they will be weak if and when they form meaning non severe but a few could be stronger. Otherwise clear and sunny skies can be expected with high temperatures in the mid to high 20's but you will be happy to hear that our weather will even be hotter Saturday. 

As for Saturday things get a bit unsettled with our temperatures approaching 30C the heat and humidity will create perfect brewing conditions for thunderstorms all across southern Manitoba some could be severe but given that shear will be present but not high enough storms won't be tornadic but nonetheless they will be elevated. As a result large hail and damaging winds along with heavy rainfall will be likely.The threat will ease by late evening but really be high in the evening, humid conditions in the mid 30's to high 30's will be present Saturday. 

Sunday will be a different story in southern Manitoba a cold front will slice through areas of southern manitoba during the morning sunday and leave behind it instability for storms during the rest of the day Sunday meaning fairly good chances for severe weather on Sunday. I'm not sure about the dynamics but the rest of the day looks good once storms clear by evening. Better weather returns for the week, however things are looking more stormy come the tuesday and wednesday timeframe. Heat continues as we go through the rest of the month although a little cooler nowhere near below normal.
