Regina and the southeast part of the province are expected to see steady rainfall throughout the first half of the weekend according to Environment Canada.

According to the Saskatchewan crop report, spring snow and rain have kept the seeding of crops below the five-year average, but it isn't anything to sound alarm bells over.

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.
