Wind Gust Animation - NAM Nest Forecast Model
Its gonna get WINDY. Starting off along the Alberta foothills, we have a strong wind that develops near Lethbridge and flies into Montana before pushing east into southern Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Friday night through Saturday and Sunday morning the big winds will cross from Alberta to Montana into southern Saskatchewan and southern Manitoba. Up to 70 knots is possible in central Montana, up to 60 knots in southern Manitoba and 50 knots in southern Saskatchewan over the weekend. Should be relatively light winds Thursday and Friday morning unless this forecast changes drastically again.
Note: We had a 6 degree forecast temperature drop from 25C to19C in Regina, trying to figure out what the real weather will be for Friday. Something is off and the Solar Flare of X9 is the prime suspect.
