Thursday is the warm day of the week in southern Manitoba, before winter returns for Friday.
A high of about 5 C is expected in Winnipeg with even warmer temperatures in communites south and west of the city — 9 C in Steinbach, Morden and Brandon.
That's ahead of some snow that arrives Friday. The expected amounts are uncertain at this time, but Winnipeg will likely get about 2-4 centimetres, says CBC meteorologist John Sauder.
As much as 10 cm could fall just north of the city, he said.
