REGINA, SK – Regina is in for a week of varying weather, beginning with a cool and cloudy day, but the sun is ready to make a strong comeback by the end of the week.

Today, the temperature will rise to around 22°C under mostly cloudy skies, with a 60% chance of showers late in the afternoon. Winds will be gusty, coming from the southeast at 30 km/h, making it feel cooler. Tonight, expect the showers to continue early in the evening with the possibility of a thunderstorm, followed by clearing skies as the temperature drops to 6°C.

Thursday will be a bit cooler with a high of 16°C and continued cloudy skies with a 60% chance of showers throughout the day.
