A storm system will be passing through the southeast this weekend, bringing some decent moisture to a few localized areas over the next couple of days.
With funnel clouds and hail storms dominating much of the summer so far, the possibility remains of another big storm that could cause damage in the southeast.
Environment Canada Meteorologist Brian Proctor says that luckily this system seems to be less severe then those of the past couple of months.
"They're not looking like they're going to particularly severe storms at this point in time. So more sort of air mass thunderstorms to a certain degree, we're not really looking at a lot of sheer in the environment. There's not a lot here in the profile that would support more severe storms."
"So just localized airmass thunderstorms to a certain degree, probably the biggest threat with them would be sort of locally intense downpours as these storms will likely be fairly slow moving maybe 30 to 50mm kind of ranges underneath some of those bigger cells, but not looking particularly severe at this point in time."
Those storms will bring a small dip in temperature on Saturday, bringing the area below 30 degrees for the first time since the start of the week.
"It's just a little weak impulse coming through more than anything else. We're looking at maybe having a bit more cloud around. I think through the afternoon hours and early evening hours on Saturday."
That cooling won't last long as an intense heat system is expected to ramp up midway through next week.
"In general terms, it's just a a blip if you want to put it that way, we really start seeing the upper ridge and the effects of it really swinging eastwards through the middle point of next work week. That's when we start to see those temperatures pop up for the Estevan and Weyburn area."
