Weather
It will be mostly sunny across the province Thursday with a high of 19 C.
A word from SaltWire Network chief meteorologist Cindy Day:
“The dry high that originated over Labrador is serving up some sun and slightly cooler than normal temperatures today; Friday is going to be almost perfect. Then, after nightfall, an approaching trough will bring a few night showers and clouds will linger on Saturday. By Sunday, a warm front is going to turn up the heat and the humidity: feel-like temperatures are expected to flirt with the mid-30s until Tuesday. The trailing cold front will be absorbed by the dry air aloft and lost its cold-front characteristics. The muggy southwest wind will veer to the west, but temperatures will remain above seasonal values across the province all week.”
