You may remember the May long weekend last year. Weather warnings were put in place because of the heavy rain, snow and strong winds expected across the region. This might refresh your memory.

It seems mother nature is looking to make up for last year’s misery. Across southern Manitoba temperatures should remain above seasonal with sunny skies. There is rain in the forecast for Sunday night/Monday but hopefully that can be forgiven since it will likely be a travel day for a lot of people.
