Mild, Pacific air will be making its way into the prairies encouraging a significant warm up in temperatures over the weekend. Weather models are in agreement that temperatures will climb close, or just above the freezing mark, in southern Manitoba next week. It also looks like temperatures should stay above normal through the rest of January.
