Last weekend’s storm system ended up being much stronger and slower than anticipated. Fortunately, it looks like this forecast period will see much quieter weather, with more summer-like conditions moving in.
By Wednesday of this week the weekend storm system will have pulled well to our east and high pressure will be in place. Wednesday morning will start off pretty cold, with some regions seeing a late-May frost. Temperatures will quickly warm up under the strong late-spring sun and we should see highs in the upper teens to around 20 C.

Types of tornado mimics
Not everything with spinning winds on the Canadian Prairies is a tornado. From dust devils to cold-core funnel clouds, there are a number of weather phenomenon that fit the description.
This high pressure should remain in place right through until at least Saturday, bringing sunny to partly cloudy skies with temperatures warming a couple of degrees each day. On Sunday we could see a bit more cloud and maybe a few isolated showers as a weak area of low pressure drifts through southern and central regions of Manitoba.
Next week looks like it will start off fairly warm, as low pressure begins to develop to our west and an upper ridge develops over our region. This should result in high temperatures in the mid- to upper 20s on Monday and Tuesday. By next Wednesday the weather models predict the western low will push through central and northern regions of Manitoba, dragging a cold front across southern regions. This cold front will likely bring a round of showers and thunderstorms sometime Wednesday.
Looking further ahead, the weather models show fairly typical early-summer weather for the remainder of next week, with high temperatures expected in the mid-20s and the chance of a thunderstorm every couple of days.
Usual temperature range for this period: Highs, 17 to 27 C; lows, 4 to 13 C.
