Colleen Bready's Forecast: A cool and windy start to the week
Colleen Bready has your current conditions and updated weather forecast for June 23, 2025.
After thunderstorms rolled through Winnipeg on Sunday, conditions in the city and across southern Manitoba are cool and windy on Monday.
Daytime highs across the region will only reach the low to mid-teens Monday afternoon, well below seasonal norms in the mid-20s.
There's also a varying chance of showers across the south.
Showers are more likely in the southwest, but wildfire-affected areas in the southeast, including Nopiming Provincial Park, could see some much-needed precipitation, too.
Conditions are similar Monday across northwestern Ontario.
Meanwhile, a low over Rainy River in northwestern Ontario will bring rain to much of central and northern Manitoba on Monday.
Anywhere from 5 to 20 mm of rainfall is expected.
There is no real risk of thunderstorms, so the rain will be welcomed in most wildfire-affected areas. However, rain likely won't reach as far north as Lynn Lake, which is also contending with a nearby wildfire.
Air quality in Manitoba is good Monday, relatively speaking, with the exception of smoke closer to wildfires. Environment and Climate Change Canada has no air quality alerts in effect on Monday.
Ahead Tuesday, temperatures in Winnipeg will return to normal for late June, with a high in the mid-20s under a mix of sun and cloud.

Metro Vancouver weather: Sunshine and warm temperatures ahead for Canada Day
It's been a gloomy and overcast summer so far, but that's about to change with plenty of sun and heat in the forecast just in time for Canada Day. The B.C. South Coast is set to get sunshine and blue skies starting on the weekend and lingering until at least Canada Day on Tuesday. 'We're going to be trending towards fair, summer-type weather coming up over the weekend,' thanks to a 'pretty robust' high pressure system moving in off the Pacific Ocean, said Environment Canada meteorologist Matt Loney. Saturday is expected to be a transition day, with temperatures warming up across the South Coast, the B.C. Interior, and even into the north.

Typically, temperatures for areas near the water this time of year hover around 20 C, while inland it's usually about 22 C., said Loney. 'We're going to be anywhere from three to eight degrees above that, with the hottest day probably Monday or Tuesday,' he noted. In Vancouver, conditions are expected to start heating up on Saturday with a high of 21 C, rising to 25 C by Canada Day. Inland, it'll be even warmer. After a cloudy Saturday, Abbotsford and the Fraser Valley can expect sun and highs of 30 C on Monday and 29 C on Tuesday. In Whistler, temperatures will be about five to six degrees above seasonal, hitting a high of 27 C on Monday and Tuesday. It'll be even warmer further north in Pemberton, where it'll feel like 32 C. It's a similar situation in Victoria — where it'll be 24 C on Canada Day — and across the Interior. Kelowna, Kamloops and Osoyoos are expected to reach highs of 33 C on Tuesday. Loney advised people to put on their sunscreen and enjoy the sunshine while they can. The sunny streak is expected to end by the middle of next week when clouds and cooler marine air start moving in. chchan@

Chris Selley: Let the kids sweat a little. Schools have bigger problems than A/C
In 2018, the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) staff estimated the cost of air conditioning all its schools at roughly $400 million — so, nearly $500 million in 2025 dollars — plus millions more in annual maintenance and electricity bills. It described the task as 'virtually impossible.' Last week, the Hamilton Wentworth District School Board (HWDSB) staff pegged the cost to air condition its own schools at $200 million, while describing the job as only 'relatively impossible.' Article content Article content By rights, those numbers — which you can safely double to get nearer the actual cost — would put the issue to bed. But they are back in the news because it was quite hot in southern Ontario and Quebec for two days this week. And some people are remarkably passionate about a lack of air conditioning, at least once or twice a year. '(Students) have to endure real harms to their well-being,' we read in the Toronto Star. 'A temperature-safe environment should be a given. A right,' we read in The Globe and Mail. Article content Article content But surely all would agree the TDSB, HWDSB and every other Canadian school board has far bigger priorities than saving students and staff a few days of discomfort in late June and early September. Certainly our Junes and Septembers are getting warmer on average, but the temperatures we saw in Toronto this week — a high of 35 C on Monday and Tuesday — were not unprecedented in the time before air conditioning. Article content We coped. We should be able to cope even better now that we don't have to live all day long in the sweltering heat: Even if we don't have air conditioning at home, there are public places to go for a break. Article content Article content I can just hear people saying, 'nothing is too expensive for our kids.' If nothing were too expensive for our kids, relatively wealthy parents wouldn't be donating all sorts of supplies to their kids' public schools. (Ironically, one of the things parents can't donate is air conditioners. The board cites concerns over the electricity supply and — more dubiously — proper installation.) Article content Article content In real life, money is finite. And there would be tremendous opportunity costs to spending $500 million (or likely far more) on alleviating a few days of moistened brows, not even once every year. You don't have to think $500 million is a reasonable estimate — it probably isn't — but you should be 100 per cent sure it would get spent. The TDSB pays $150 to install a pencil sharpener, for heaven's sake. Article content I was curious how the media covered Toronto's all-time record heat wave, in 1936. 'Heat toll 22 dead; mercury reaches 103.7 (F),' was the Toronto Daily Star's banner headline on July 10. We have a right to live better than we did in 1936 — and we do! — but perhaps that puts things in some perspective.
