Regina residents can expect a week of sunny, above-seasonal weather as temperatures climb to a summer-like 27°C on Thursday, September 24, well above the seasonal normal high of 16°C. Environment Canada‘s forecast shows no weather alerts in effect for Regina or the surrounding area.

As of 11:00 AM CST on Monday, September 21, 2026, conditions at Regina International Airport were sunny with a temperature of 17.2°C, humidity at 68%, and south winds at 23 km/h. South winds of 30 km/h gusting to 50 km/h are forecast for Monday and Tuesday, with a UV index of 5, considered moderate.

The warm, dry spell offers welcome relief after a wet August and early September, when some northeastern areas of Saskatchewan received 80 mm or more of precipitation. The above-seasonal temperatures also align with a broader trend of warmer falls in the province, including last year’s record-breaking warm autumn.

A strong El Niño event, described as the ‘Godzilla of El Niños,’ is expected to bring warmer-than-normal conditions to Saskatchewan through the fall and winter. Regina had 19 days with temperatures above 30°C during summer 2026, and this week continues that warm pattern.

According to weather records, the warmest temperature ever recorded in Regina in September was 37.2°C on September 3, 1940. This week’s highs, while well above normal, remain far from that record.
