Sherwood Park residents can look forward to a mostly sunny and mild week ahead, with no weather alerts in effect as of Monday, August 17, 2026, according to Environment Canada.

Monday afternoon carries a 40 percent chance of precipitation along with a risk of strong thunderstorms, but skies are expected to clear by evening. Temperatures will reach a high of 23 C today. The Weather Network forecast shows mainly sunny conditions for the remainder of the week, with afternoon highs climbing to 26 C on Tuesday and Wednesday. Overnight lows will dip to between 11 C and 14 C.

From Tuesday through Friday, Sherwood Park can expect predominantly clear skies and comfortable daytime highs ranging from 24 C to 26 C. The UV index will be moderate to high this week, reaching 6 on Tuesday, so sun protection is recommended during peak afternoon hours.

The settled weather marks a notable change from earlier this summer, when record-breaking rainfall in June caused widespread flooding in the Edmonton region. More than 255 millimetres of rain fell that month, leading to significant flooding in Sherwood Park communities including Jubilee Landing. This week’s conditions are much closer to seasonal norms for August, which typically bring daytime highs of 23 C and overnight lows around 10 C.

The extended forecast suggests a shift by the weekend, with cloudier skies and an increasing chance of showers starting Saturday night and continuing into Sunday. For now, though, residents can enjoy the late-summer sunshine and long daylight hours, with sunset at 8:58 PM on Monday.
