Beaumont residents can expect a mix of sunshine, scattered showers, and wildfire smoke over the coming days, according to the latest forecast from Environment Canada. No weather alerts are in effect for the area as of Monday, July 20, 2026.

Monday started with a few showers and a risk of thunderstorms in the morning, with widespread smoke moving in during the afternoon. The high reached 24°C but felt closer to 28°C with the humidity. About 5 mm of rain fell before the skies began clearing later in the day.

The smoky conditions are expected to stick around through Tuesday, which will be mainly cloudy with a 30 percent chance of showers and another risk of a thunderstorm. The actual high is pegged at 25°C, though it will feel like 30°C with the humidex. Overnight lows early in the week dip to around 12°C.

By Wednesday, the smoke is forecast to ease, and sunshine returns. Thursday looks to be the warmest day of the week with a high of 32°C under sunny skies. Friday will see a mix of sun and cloud, with a 30 percent chance of showers developing overnight. Saturday carries a 30 percent chance of showers during the day, with a mix of sun and cloud. Highs through this period are expected to stay in the mid-to-upper 20s.

This pattern of warm but unsettled weather is typical for mid-summer in the Edmonton region. While the forecast includes the risk of thunderstorms and smoky periods, Environment Canada has not issued any alerts, and no widespread severe weather is expected.

The smoke drifting into the area is linked to wildfires burning in British Columbia and northern Alberta. Though the 2026 wildfire season is not predicted to be as bad as the record-breaking seasons of 2023 and 2025, smoke events remain a concern when winds push it toward central Alberta.
