🌧️ Damp and breezy Friday ahead — cooler and mostly cloudy through the weekend
KENORA – Weather – A mild but soggy start to the day in Kenora and the Lake of the Woods region, with early morning drizzle, low clouds, and fog patches slowly lifting. Temperatures remain unusually warm near +15°C, but a cold front moving in from the west will bring scattered showers and gusty southwest winds by midday.
Temperatures will hold steady near +12°C through the day, then fall slightly tonight as winds ease. The weekend will bring a return to more seasonal air — mainly cloudy skies, occasional drizzle, and cooler highs in the 10–11°C range.
