It is cold because our jet stream in the mid-latitudes where we are is below the international border. When that jet stream dips, it allows the cold air to settle in. There's a bit of ridging that will happen in ontario and parts of québec as we head into friday ask saturday. You notice in behind that, the jet stream stays well south of our prairies. It really takes until sunday before there's a bit of amplification happening through western canada. Monday, tuesday, that will build. And we will see that long-range forecast. Temperatures begin to rise in the west. Before we get there, it continues to be cool in many areas, which is helping to influence that fire behaviour. Still seeing air quality statements in the far northeast of B.C. including fort nelson area. That is holding steady. When we look at yesterday to today. A few showers lingering in central alberta. Parts of west/central saskatchewan. A few showers in southern manitoba. That's just a pre-cursor of much more active weather that is set to move into the region as we head into tonight. Temperature-wise, high level fort nelson and fort St. John continue to be warmer than areas to the east. It is cooler than average for many prairies communities including into southern alberta where it will be barely double digits today. In calgary, in pinscher creek ask red deer. Temperatures rise into the long-range forecast. It will take until saturday before they are seasonal again. We will also see cooler than average temperatures in parts of saskatchewan and manitoba. Look at dawson and brandon. Winnipeg dropping to single digits. That is due to the influence of rain. Now that is not until later on tonight. Before we get there, it is going to be fairly cloudy across all four western provinces. A few showers mixed in. The rain intensifies overnight tonight and into early tomorrow morning across the international border with north dakota. Areas of higher terrain will flip over to snow. That is how cold it will be by mid-afternoon on friday. That continues through friday evening and saturday as well. Notice we will have some clearing in southern saskatchewan by saturday midday, but otherwise it's a fairly cloudy outlook. It's due to the fact that there is that area of lower pressure in the upper atmosphere. We see the possibility of rising air which creates that cloud and creates precipitation from there. For atlantic canada, you have a line of thunderstorms that moves its way in. We are going to see a reduction in the humidity in new brunswick after this front moves through. It means there's a risk of severe thunderstorms in new brunswick later on this afternoon and evening. That will persist overnight heading for areas like halifax and up toward newfoundland by friday midday. That line of storms tracking its time across newfoundland right through the rest of friday. Now here is a look at your local forecast.
