Tuesday

13 degrees was where Saskatoon started out the day under pure blue skies and sunshine.

A big upper ridge of high pressure kept us sunny all day as we warmed up through the morning to humidex values into the 30s before noon.

The ridge keeps us in the heat and sunshine through the afternoon as we make it up to an afternoon high around 33 degrees with humidex values in the mid-to-upper 30s.

Tuesday Night

Clear skies will kick off the evening before a few clouds filter in overnight as we cool back into the mid-teens.

Wednesday

A low pressure system swinging in will build in clouds and a good chance of showers and thunderstorms during the day, with the risk of storms lingering into Wednesday evening.

Despite the clouds and risk of rain, we should manage to make it into the low 30s for a daytime high before showers dip us back into the upper 20s late in the day.
