It’s been a wet 24 hours for Saskatchewan.
Environment Canada says the Outlook area topped the province with 54.1 mm, or just over 2 inches, of rain since Saturday around noon. The Saskatoon area experienced around 40 mm in that time frame, while Regina only had to deal with 5-10 mm of rain.
Environment Canada’s Sara Hoffman explained why the province got the dump of precipitation.
“A very powerful low-pressure system formed in Montana, and pushed northwards bringing quite a bit of precipitation to Saskatchewan and Alberta,” Hoffman told 650 CKOM Sunday.
She says the rain is expected to stop later on Sunday for Saskatoon and central Saskatchewan, but expect more Monday.
“The main band of (rainfall) is going to continue to push north and westward past, creating a bit of a break today. But then some showers are expected across Saskatchewan Monday, again,” Hoffman said. “Eventually the rain will stop (today), I promise.”
The wind was also a factor in Saskatchewan Saturday night and into the early morning hours Sunday. Wind gusts around 70-80 km/h were felt in Saskatoon, but that pales in comparison to those in the south.
Hoffman said Estevan recorded the largest wind gust, topping off at 104 km/h. Regina also felt the gusts, topping off at 91 km/h overnight Saturday.
Heavy winds, coupled with large rainfall totals isn’t uncommon for Saskatchewan at this time of year, according to Hoffman.
“June is our rainiest month, pretty well across the board (and) across the prairies,” she said.
