Rain eased off mid-morning, allowing the mercury to rise a few degrees under cloudy skies heading into the noon hour.

The weakening system bringing in the cloud cover and precipitation slid south during the afternoon, keeping clouds around as we climbed to a daytime high in the mid-teens.

A bit of snow fell west of Saskatoon on Thursday, but precipitation had all changed over to rain by the afternoon into Friday, and the good news is – no more is on the way!

Saturday

Sunshine gets back into full swing on Saturday with just a few midday clouds possible as a breezy wind kicks in with gusts upwards of 30 to 40 km/h possible into the afternoon.

The heat will also kick into high gear during the day with temperatures climbing all the way up into the low 20s for an afternoon high as we slide into the warm sector of a system pushing into the north.
