It will be another warm and windy day across southeastern Manitoba today with southerly winds gusting to 60 km/h pushing temperatures into the upper twenties and humidex values into the mid thirties. A cold front will track eastward across southern Manitoba this afternoon. This cold front will encounter the warm and humid airmass that is in place and trigger strong thunderstorms late this afternoon and this evening, especially in the Red River Valley. This front will stall out over southeastern Manitoba on Sunday and another impulse will ride along the front and bring more rain, at times heavy, and thunderstorms across southeastern Manitoba Sunday afternoon and Sunday night. Total rainfall amounts of 40 to 60 mm can be expected by Monday morning over most areas of southeastern Manitoba with locally higher amounts in areas that see several thunderstorms during the period. Rain will taper off Monday morning from west to east as this front finally pushes eastward into Ontario.
