Yeah, you know, we're looking at cooler day again tomorrow. And I mean, we will warm up this week. We will be below normal for this week, but not as below normal as we've been today yesterday. And what we will be 10 degrees. So at least we got into the double digits here in calgary today. But yeah, we should be at 18 for this time of year. We're in the double digits in through lethbridge and milk river and into the teens for medicine hat right now. But most communities in alberta are below normal right now and will continue to be through tomorrow as well. Really what we have is the system from northern bc this now pushing and pushing some rainfall in and creating that instability. So there's some non severe thunderstorms here and there, especially in central alberta for us in the south, it's a smaller chance of that. But again, these are non severe stuff. You get it all come with a downpour. The winds will pick up a little bit. There will be a little bit of lightning, but these aren't intense storms. You can see closer to that U.S. border. This is the system stateside now pushing into montana, creating a little bit of that instability specially closer to that U.S. border and pushing a little bit of rainfall as well. But this is mainly a system that will track into southern saskatchewan, manitoba, specially manitoba by friday. For us, though, we're dealing with this one coming in from the north and you can see more pockets moving on down from the north. So we're looking at this on and off rain fall through the evening through tonight, I even through tomorrow spots, just to give you the timeline here, you can see pockets of rain moving through the one thing I will say it will get a little intense around the midnight hour. As you can see by your time stamp here. But through tomorrow, it will be less intense and less rainfall expected than what we've had out there today in the south and for example, has been pretty consistent all day. And he's been intermittent intermittent in parts of the north end. But tomorrow will have breaks from it. Small chance of seeing a little bit of sunshine. But then later in the day, closer to the supper hours. Once again, we get into that chance of these isolated showers that could be heavier. And even a non severe thunderstorms. Well, by friday we get into the chance of more sunshine possible. Now when we look at amounts possible 10 millimetres possible 5 to 10 in calgary from now through the end of friday and into the 20's for banff and canmore further off to the east, looking at less rainfall from this system. All right for tomorrow in calgary, 3 to 5 millimetres again, just a high of 9, just another cool day as well. Late day thunderstorms possible more sunshine expected on friday that will get us 16 degrees. And if we get an isolated pocket up to a couple millimetres possible and a little more rain fall back on saturday, one to 3 millimetres because he temperatures will continually warm. So by next week, we're looking at dry weather and being back into the 20's. Sister capital chef 5 day forecast. Tara. Thank you. Daniel.
