Canada Day in southern Manitoba could start off with some showers in the morning and early afternoon, but clearing later in the day. Temperatures should be close to the mid twenties. The rest of the long weekend will likely be sunny and hot as those temperatures slowly climb to the upper twenties by Monday.
In northern Manitoba, showers will be present for a few areas but mostly in the morning hours. Overcast conditions will dominate the forecast for most of the north with temperatures generally peaking just shy of 20 C.
