Glacier FarmMedia — The weather situation on the Canadian Prairies will likely become unsettled when moving deeper into June, said Scott Kehler, chief scientist for Weatherlogics.
“The week (of June 9) will start fairly benign for the eastern Prairies. Then as we get into the latter part of the week, Alberta has increasing chances for rainfall,” Kehler explained.
“The most chances of rain will likely spread further east into Saskatchewan and Manitoba as we get into the weekend or early next week,” he added, noting the weather will remain unsettled.

Fifty-six per cent chance of more stable, ENSO neutral weather conditions in late summer and fall U.S. forecasters say
More stable weather due to El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) neutral conditions are likely in the Northern Hemisphere summer of 2025, with a 56 per cent chance in August-October, the U.S. Climate Prediction Center said.
That is to lead to more rain, but Kehler said not over the Prairies as a whole, rather different areas at different times, but with the entire region getting moisture.
Temperatures won’t dip too far below normal; he added with conditions to be warmer in Alberta.
Kehler also said the smoke from wildfires will have an impact on the weather. Be the smoke up high or down lower, it will reduce temperatures somewhat.
He noted northern Saskatchewan received a good amount of rain over the weekend, helping with the fires there. However, the blazes in Alberta and Manitoba didn’t receive as much precipitation. He said that can lead to more complexity in forecasting the weather.
