Winnipeg, MB – As we head into the weekend, residents in northern regions can expect heavy rain to move in, according to meteorologist Colleen Bready’s forecast.
Bready predicts that the rain will begin to move into the northern areas on Friday evening and continue into Saturday. The heaviest rainfall is expected to occur on Saturday afternoon and evening.
This weather system is expected to bring significant amounts of precipitation, with some areas potentially seeing up to 30 mm of rain. Bready advises residents to be prepared for possible localized flooding and to take necessary precautions.
In addition to the rain, strong winds are also expected to accompany this weather system. Wind gusts of up to 60 km/h are possible, which could cause some tree damage and power outages.
The rest of the province can expect a mix of sun and clouds, with temperatures ranging from 10 to 15 degrees Celsius. However, Bready warns that there is a chance of isolated showers in some areas.
As always, it is important for residents to stay informed and monitor weather updates as this system moves through the region. It is also recommended to secure any loose objects and avoid driving through flooded areas.
