The 2018 summer season in Regina was warm and dry, continuing a drought that has been ongoing for 17 months.

Regina had over double it's normal snowfall in March and May was the hottest ever recorded.

After record-breaking heat in Saskatchewan on Tuesday and a tinder dry start to the month of May, rain is finally in the forecast. Parts of the province could see upwards of 25 millimeters of rain, and although it won't cure the drought, it will offer some relief.
