Producers in southwestern Saskatchewan have been reaping the rewards of Mother Nature lately.
The weather station in Swift Current recorded 11.9 millimetres of precipitation over the weekend with 11.5 of that on Saturday.
Thursday and Saturday's rains have brought Swift Current to a total of 39.5 millimetres in May, just shy of the city's average at 44.8 millimetres.
"They've been well-timed rains," Environment and Climate Change Canada Meteorologist Terri Lang said. "It's been really dry for a long time, so I think the rain is quite welcome.
The light consistent showers that hit the city on Saturday were perfect for crops while just two hours east in Regina it was a different story and system altogether.
"They got some reports of 33 millimetres in an hour so lots of localized flooding there and big hail," she said.
More rain looks like a possibility mid-week if the current forecast holds up.
"The best chance for more rain looks like late Wednesday maybe into Thursday and the temperatures do cool because of that," she said. "Looks like there could be some decent rain out of that."
