By Jerry Klassen July 8, 2025

Prairie forecast: Looking warm and dry for Canada Day

Forecast issued June 25, covering June 25 to July 2, 2025

By Daniel Bezte June 25, 2025

Reading Time: 3 minutes A broad but unorganized area of low pressure impacts all three Prairie provinces for at least the first half of this forecast period. Unsettled weather means it will be a difficult forecast to pin down. It also means seasonable temperatures with no big intense heat waves expected—though that doesn’t mean we won’t see a few hot days.
