Cold to start the week with warmer temperatures arriving

Everyone I’m back from a short break a well needed one as I have been working on blog posts for the majority of the summer and fall . Post will be sporadic but they will still be posted in the event that we have any major changes in weather. In regards to this week Southern Manitoba can expect a cooler than average start to the week as a large area of high-pressure will be establishing himself over the Canadian provinces, that will be the weather maker for the week ahead. 

Above Tuesday will be the last cooler than average day of the week before it warms up on Wednesday.

Monday: Area of high-pressure will be moving towards the province of Manitoba throughout the day on Monday. The day ahead on Monday will start off mostly cloudy for a majority of regions in the southern half of the province, some partly cloudy skies may be around in the interlakes. Sunshine expected in the afternoon for the majority of the southern half of the province. Northerly winds can be expected throughout the day ahead of the area of high-pressure, temperatures will not budge much for the day I’m only expecting High temperatures to rise into the mid to  high minus single digits, in general anywhere from -6°C to -10°C. Forecast; Winnipeg: Cloudy in the morning then sunny, high -6C. Brandon: Cloudy , then becoming sunny in the afternoon high -3C. 

Monday Night: Partly cloudy skies then cloudy skies are expected for the night on Monday, around the morning hours cloudy skies are expected for majority of the region. As cloudy skies are expected to be in place temperatures won’t drop much. Low temperatures in southern Manitoba will drop into the high minus single digits and Low minus double digit temperatures,  especially in areas that are in the red river valley and lakes region. This means that The red river valley will see low temperatures between -10°C and -14°C with the windchill is getting closer to -20°C. Overnight low temperatures for the rest of southern Manitoba will be between -7°C and -10°C. Forecast, Winnipeg: cloudy, low -12°C windchill -18°C. Brandon: cloudy Low-10°C.  

Tuesday: As mentioned above the area of high-pressure will be moving through southern Manitoba on Tuesday as it moves through the province Palm conditions are expected with partly cloudy to mostly cloudy skies. Majority of the region will see temperatures in the mid single digits with some regions seeing temperatures in the low minus single digits (-1 to -7C). Winnipeg: partly cloudy high -3°C. Brandon: Partly cloudy high temperature -4°C. 

Tuesday Night: There will also be cloudy skies on Tuesday night and into Wednesday. Temperatures on Tuesday night will warm as the area of high-pressure moves out to the east this will allow our temperatures to rise gradually overnight. This means that mid minus single digits in the evening will rise to the low minus single digits overnight. This will mean that temperatures will drop between -5°C and -1°C in extreme south western portions of Manitoba. Winnipeg:  cloudy Low -2°C, Brandon: cloudy low -4°C.

 Wednesday: Mainly cloudy skies are expected in the morning with Sunny skies for the afternoon with a mix of sun and cloud expected. An approaching low-pressure system will be drawing in a southerly airmass for the day on Wednesday, as a result a majority of southern Manitoba will be experiencing above normal temperatures for the day on Wednesday. Temperatures will be in the range of 4°C to 10°C with the warmer temperatures expected towards the American border. Winnipeg: Sunny and high temperature 8°C, Brandon: sunny high temperature 5°C.

The second half of the week looks to have an area of low pressure move through the province of Manitoba which will drop our temperatures for the latter half of the week, it is really difficult at this point in time to figure out if we will be getting any precipitation as the frontal system goes through we will monitor this for further updates.
