Morris, Manitoba, is in for a warm, mostly clear week, with a brief rainy stretch early on before sunshine returns. According to Environment Canada, daytime highs will reach the mid-to-high 20s through Friday, but residents should keep umbrellas handy for Monday and Tuesday.
On Monday, August 24, the temperature at 1:00 PM was 23.2°C with southeast winds at 17 km/h and a humidex of 29. The forecast calls for a 70 percent chance of thunderstorms late in the afternoon, with south winds gusting to 40 km/h and a high of 26°C. The UV index will be 7, which is considered high, so sunscreen is a good idea for anyone heading outside.
Tuesday is expected to be a bit cooler, around 22°C, with a 60 percent chance of showers and a risk of thunderstorms in the afternoon. Northwest winds could gust up to 50 km/h. The unsettled weather is the result of a passing system moving through southern Manitoba.
By Wednesday, conditions clear up, with a forecast high of 25°C. Thursday will be sunny at 25°C, and Friday is expected to reach 26°C with more sun. These temperatures are right at or above the late-August normal of 25°C for Morris.
While there are no weather alerts currently in effect for Morris, The Weather Network is advising residents to stay alert for severe storms and a possible tornadic threat in southern Manitoba on Monday evening. Morris itself is not under any specific alert at this time.
Flooding is not a concern this week. The Town of Morris has no current flood warnings posted, and the spring flood season is long past. The province’s March 2026 Flood Outlook indicated only a low-to-moderate risk for the Red River basin, with levels expected to stay well below community protection measures.
Overall, residents can look forward to plenty of sunshine for most of the week after the mid-week showers pass. Whether it is yard work, a walk along the river, or just enjoying the late-summer warmth, the forecast is mostly cooperative.
