Manitoba will enter a phase of warmer weather this week before we end up in another arctic airmass to start the weekend.
The warm weather and south winds we saw today was in part due to a trough of low pressure that is hovering over our area. Tonight an area of snow will develop as the trough of low pressure moves through, switching our winds to the north by the morning Tuesday.
For the day Tuesday "winds will be out of the North at 20 to 30km/h with a few flurries persisting during the day along with cloudy skies" according to Scott from A Weather Moment. Despite having winds out of the north the temperatures will remain mild around the mid minus single digits for most.
Wednesday will also be cloudy and mild with clearing conditions later on in the day, highs closer to zero at around -5C to -2C. It will still be a decent day but those who hate grey days it will be one of those. Pacific Air will dominate for the remainder of the week here, while southern ontario deals with a major snowstorm and strong winds out of the north. They are expecting up to 30cm in some areas they can have it, I feel bad for them as winter will stick around longer because of the increased snow cover.

After a week of warmer than normal temperatures we will likely be greeted by another blast of arctic air to start the weekend and by the looks of the ECMWF weather model it may end around the 1st of March to the 3rd of March. Theweathernetwork also latches onto this idea. So it will be very brief as to previous years we would be stuck in it for weeks, thank you El Nino!
