Residents of Stonewall should prepare for a week of shifting weather, as a mild weekend will quickly give way to a cold snap and the return of snow. According to Environment Canada, the community will see a high of 4°C this Saturday, April 4, 2026, before temperatures drop significantly through early next week.
The mild conditions on Saturday are expected to feature clearing skies, providing a window for outdoor activities. However, a major temperature change arrives Sunday, with overnight lows dipping to -14°C. The cold will continue into early next week, with Monday, April 6, seeing the coldest conditions of the period as temperatures fall to -17°C overnight.
Winter-like weather is expected to return on Tuesday, April 7, when snow is in the forecast with a daytime high of 0°C. By Wednesday, April 8, the region may see a mixture of snow or rain as temperatures rise slightly to 3°C. There are currently no weather alerts in effect for the area.
These fluctuations align with broader seasonal predictions for the Prairies. Both The Weather Network and The Old Farmer’s Almanac have indicated that Manitoba can expect below-normal temperatures and additional snowfall throughout April. While the return of snow may be unexpected for some, historical data shows that Southern Manitoba often receives nearly one-quarter of its winter snowfall after March 1, making April precipitation a normal part of the local spring season.
As of 4:00 a.m. on Friday, April 3, 2026, conditions reported at the Winnipeg Richardson Int’l Airport were mostly cloudy with a temperature of 0°C.
