Saskatchewan weather outlook: cold front kicks out 30-degree heat

Thirty degree heat returns ahead of another cold front.

Weather forecast

Friday

After starting out the day in the mid-teens with clouds and spotty showers, skies start clearing out of the area during the day as high pressure begins building in from the west.

Northwesterly winds stay persistent, with gusts upwards of 60 kilometres per hour at times as temperatures manage to climb up to around 26 degrees for an afternoon high as sunshine gets back into full swing.

Friday night

Winds finally ease back during the evening as clear skies continue and conditions cool back into low double digits overnight.

Saturday

Sensational sunshine will be back on Saturday along with sizzling heat with afternoon temperatures in the low 30s feeling like the mid-30s with humidity before winds pick back up to 50 km/h late in the day.

The heat coupled with an approaching low-pressure system and cold front may fire off some severe storms late in the day as clouds build in during the evening with a chance of showers.
