Regina residents can expect a significant shift in weather this week as temperatures climb from a chilly Monday start to a warm, sunny peak on Friday, May 1, 2026. According to Environment Canada, the city will see a 19-degree increase over five days, moving from a high of 4°C early in the week to 23°C by Friday.
The week began on a cold note, with temperatures at the Regina International Airport sitting at -6°C at 3:00 a.m. on Monday, April 27, with a wind chill near -10°C. Residents heading out during the early part of the week are encouraged to dress warmly before the milder weather arrives.
Friday’s forecasted high of 23°C is notable for the region, sitting about 8 degrees above the typical seasonal average of 15°C. Reaching 20°C or higher is relatively uncommon in April, with the city usually seeing only four such days throughout the entire month. This warming trend follows a broader prediction from The Weather Network, which anticipated that the cooler conditions experienced earlier this spring would give way to a warmer pattern as May approaches.
While the incoming sun and warmth offer ideal conditions for outdoor activities, there are currently no weather alerts in effect for the area. However, it is important to note that the average last frost date for the region is May 21, meaning that even with the upcoming warm weather, frost remains a possibility for local gardens and plants overnight.
