A wet end to the weekend is expected in Moose Jaw as Environment Canada tracks a low-pressure system that could bring significant rainfall to southern Saskatchewan. Environment Canada meteorologist Keane Kokolsky said the system is expected to move through southwestern Montana before pushing into southern Saskatchewan late Saturday night and into Sunday morning. "Definitely looking at a chance of as high as 20 to even possibly 30 millimeters or higher of rain, depending on where those highest rainfall amounts do materialize with this system. But looks like definitely a wet weekend," said Kokolsky. Rain could linger into Monday The rain is expected to continue into parts of Monday before the system moves out of the region. Kokolsky said the system could also bring strong winds, with the greatest threat expected in southeastern Saskatchewan, western Manitoba and North Dakota. For south-central Saskatchewan, including Moose Jaw, there is also the possibility of lightning. "Looks like there could be some strikes of lightning associated with any storms or convection that does develop. But with the highest threats, of course, with the system will be for the rainfall." Kokolsky said a storm of this magnitude isn't necessarily unusual for this time of year, with warm and cool air masses still present around the Rocky Mountains. "I wouldn't say it's abnormal for sure, but definitely a higher-than-normal precipitation event that will be more widespread over the area than we've seen as of late."
