Stand Off, Alberta is in for a cool, rainy start to the week before the sun returns and temperatures climb well above normal by the weekend, according to Environment Canada.

Monday will see a high of 13°C with a 60 percent chance of showers and a risk of a thunderstorm. Overnight low will fall to 5°C. Tuesday brings rain beginning early in the afternoon with 5 to 10 millimetres expected and a high of just 8°C. The overnight low will be 4°C, so some outlying areas could see patchy frost.

Conditions start to improve Wednesday with sunny skies and a high of 17°C. Thursday will be sunny and 22°C. Friday sees cloudy skies with a high of 18°C.

The real warm-up arrives for the weekend. Saturday will feature a mix of sun and cloud and a high of 24°C. Sunday warms to 25°C, which is a full six degrees above the seasonal normal high of 19°C for mid-September in Stand Off.

This cooler, wetter pattern follows a rain advisory issued by Blood Tribe Housing on September 7, 2026, due to heavy rainfall and isolated flooding reports. Residents were asked to check sump pumps and clear eavestroughs. Wet roads are likely during the Monday and Tuesday morning commutes, so drivers should allow extra time.
