Endless hours of showers drench Saskatoon in over 30 millimetres of rain!
Saskatoon Forecast
Today
As of noon, Saskatoon had seen nearly 16-straight hours of rain with over 30 millimetres falling in the city!
The main reason for the wet start to the week was a low pressure system coupled with an upper disturbance swinging through that kicked up northwesterly winds to gust upwards of 50 km/h.
The rain will move out this afternoon and after starting the day out around 7 degrees, we’re expecting to warm up to an afternoon high in low double digits.

Tonight
Clouds associated with that system will clear out as it pulls off to the northeast and the precipitation associated with it transitions into snow in northern Manitoba.
With all that added moisture, fog patches are expected to develop overnight as temperatures fall back to around 3 or 4 degrees.
Tuesday
Fog patches will dissipate in the morning with some sunny breaks to start before some clouds build in during the day with a slight chance of an afternoon shower.
Winds will be light throughout the day and we’ll warm up quite quickly, reaching the mid-teens by noon and climbing into the high teens for an afternoon high.
Wednesday-Friday
An upper ridge of high pressure tries to build its way into the area through the rest of the week, but as it does so, it’s expected to push through a few waves of cloud Wednesday and Thursday before we get into some more sun by Friday.
Daytime highs are expected to climb up into the low 20s right through the rest of the week with windier conditions moving in on Friday.
Weekend Outlook
Those winds are expected to stick around on Saturday as a low pressure system swings into Alberta, bringing the Saskatoon area back into the clouds during the day with a chance of rain Sunday as it passes by south of the city.
Daytime highs are a little up in the air this weekend and are dependent on when and whether we get into the rain and the placement of this system, which is also a bit uncertain, but we should top out in the high teens Saturday and likely in the mid-teens on Sunday.
