WEDNESDAY AND BEYOND: STORM RISK FOR MANITOBA, THEN BACK TO ALBERTA

The risk of showers moves east somewhat on Wednesday, presently shifting into Manitoba as well as lingering in Saskatchewan. Severe-thunderstorm warnings for the Churchill area.

Temperature-wise, some heat creeps up back into southern Alberta Wednesday, making it feel like 30 once again.

For Alberta, an end to the break is already in sight, as an upper trough moving in from B.C. will bring the risk back to the province Thursday. By Friday, the threat will move into the eastern Prairies.
