Saskatoon Forecast
Today
Rain overnight helped put a bit more of a dent into our June precipitation deficit with 2.7 millimetres reported at the airport we cooled back to 11 degrees behind a cold front that kicked off summer.
Winds picked up this morning with a strong pressure gradient behind the system kicking up sustained speeds of 30 to 40 km/h with gusts upwards of 50 to 60 km/h as we warmed up to 17 degrees before noon.
We may see some gusts in excess of 60 to 70 km/h this afternoon as the mix of sun and cloud that started the day continues and we warm another degree or so into the high teens.
Tonight
Winds will remain fairly strong tonight from the west-northwest up to 40 km/h with gusts upwards of 60 km/h as clouds return overnight as we cool down to a low just into single digits.
Thursday
Northwesterly winds continue to pump in the cool air on Thursday with gusts upwards of 50 to 60 km/h and some wrap around rain moving in behind the system in the morning with up to 5 millimetres possible.
Cloudy skies will continue for the rest of the day as the rain tapers off in the afternoon and we warm up to a cool daytime high in the mid-teens, making it the coldest day so far this month!
Friday
Some sunshine is expected to start the day on Friday before clouds build in later on.
Winds will remain fairly breezy during the day with more of a northerly component to them, however because of the lack of rain in the morning, we’ll get a bit warmer than Thursday with an afternoon high around 17 degrees.
Weekend Outlook
After a cool first few days of summer, a well-timed warm up moves in for the weekend with temperatures returning to the low 20s on Saturday, then into the mid 20s Sunday with some sun and cloud.
