Monday night
Skies clear out Monday evening as conditions cool back into single digits overnight.
Tuesday
Sunshine kicks off the day on Tuesday with a moderate southeasterly wind picking up during the day with gusts up to 40 km/h possible.
Clouds will slide back in during the day with a slight chance of showers in Saskatoon late in the day as both cities climb into the mid-20s for an afternoon high.
Wednesday-Friday
An upper-level low-pressure system is usually a recipe for June rains in Saskatchewan and one is set to slide into the province bringing rain and a risk of storms late Wednesday.
Showers should linger Thursday and Friday at times with total amounts potentially up to 5 to 15 millimetres as daytime highs dip from the low 20s on Wednesday into the teens for the rest of the week.
Weekend outlook
Precipitation will likely become spottier and isolated to a convective nature in the afternoon from daytime heating this weekend as partly-to-mostly cloudy skies linger and daytime highs return to the 20s.
