May long weekend outlook
The much-needed rain that was earlier anticipated for May long weekend appears as though it will be confined to extreme southern Saskatchewan right through Monday.
There is only a slight chance of showers in Regina on Victoria Day with partly-to-mostly cloudy skies in the city and partly-to-mostly sunny skies in Saskatoon all weekend as daytime highs settle into the mid-teens.
