KEY MESSAGES

- Isolated weak showers and thunderstorms today.

- Cooler over the next weak with periodic chances for showers.

..Synopsis

Upper low across central Canada will remain in place through at least the next week. Ensemble guidance in good agreement leading to higher confidence with the overall synoptic pattern. The main uncertainty will be the individual shortwaves rounding the main upper low that will lead to shower chances across our region. All in all anticipate period shower chances and cooler temperatures. Impacts should be minimal given lack of instability. There could be a few sneaky marginal severe days (especially for hail given the lower freezing levels) if evapotranspiration from crops provides additional boundary layer moisture.
