WINNIPEG — The city broke a 90-year-old record Thursday when temperatures hit 35.2 Celsius.

By Friday morning the thermometer in Winnipeg had dropped 20 C and in Churchill there was snow.

A Global News viewer sent the photo with the caption “What a beautiful Christmas morning.  Except it’s May 6th.   Have fun at work everyone!”

Breaking news from Canada and around the world sent to your email, as it happens.

The good news for the northern Manitoba town is it’s supposed to warm up to 1 C, normal for this time of year.

In fact weather across much of southern Manitoba this weekend will be seasonal, or slightly above normal. But it’s still a stark contrast to the record breaking temperatures Thursday.

The high in Winnipeg should hit 22 C.
