A Glorious Start with Rain Lurking by Sunday
Friday: Clear Skies and Calm Breezes
It’s a bright and beautiful start to the day in Sandy Lake, where the skies are sunny and the temperature sits at 6.7°C as of 5:00 AM CDT. The air is crisp with 65% humidity, and a gentle east-southeast breeze at 11 km/h keeps things fresh. Visibility is a strong 16 km, and the barometric pressure is rising at 102.6 kPa, pointing to a stable and pleasant weather day ahead.
The forecast promises sunshine from start to finish, with the temperature climbing to a comfortable high of 20°C. The UV index is 6, which is high, so don’t let the cooler breeze fool you — sun protection is still important if you’re heading out to the water, the trails, or just enjoying a day on the land.
Tonight: Partly Cloudy but Peaceful
Tonight, skies will remain mostly clear, though some clouds will move in this evening. The temperature will remain mild with an overnight low of 12°C — a great evening for a fire, some stargazing, or simply enjoying the calm northern air.
Saturday: A Bit of Everything, But Mostly Good
Saturday brings a mix of sun and cloud, but no rain expected through the day. Temperatures will warm up a touch more with a high of 22°C, and the UV index will bump up to 7 — into the very high range. You’ll still want that hat, sunscreen, and sunglasses.
Saturday night will be cloudy, with the low dipping slightly to 11°C. A calm evening — but it sets the stage for what’s coming Sunday.
Sunday: Here Comes the Rain (Maybe)
Sunday will be cloudy, and there’s a 60% chance of showers through the day and again Sunday night. The daytime high will reach 21°C, so it will still feel warm and pleasant, even if rain clouds roll in. Overnight, the chance of showers remains at 60%, with a low of 11°C — not a downpour, but you might want to keep the raincoat or umbrella handy just in case.
What to Wear
Today’s forecast calls for layers — a jacket in the morning and short sleeves by midday. With temperatures rising and UV levels climbing, keep sunscreen close at hand. Saturday’s conditions are similar, and by Sunday, add a light rain layer to your weekend wardrobe just in case.
Historic Weather Trivia
On this day, June 13, Sandy Lake has felt both heat and chill. The record high was 29.3°C, set in 1995, while the record low was a crisp 2.1°C in 1974. Today’s forecast strikes a perfect balance — a pleasant, sunny June day with just enough warmth to make it feel like summer without the scorch.
