Manitoba's ag weather program measures and records data year round from over 100 weather stations across agro-Manitoba. The stations monitor air temperature, relative humidity, barometric pressure, precipitation, wind speed and direction, solar radiation, soil temperature, and soil moisture. The latest weather conditions from each station are made available every 15 minutes throughout the growing season and every hour during the winter months.
The latest weather report and maps are made available every Monday year round. Subscribe to receive a weekly distribution of seasonal reports and maps by email.

Total Accumulated Precipitation (PDF 2 MB)
Total accumulated precipitation since November 1 ranged from 1.1 mm to 23.7 mm throughout all regions. Normal (based on the 30-year historical average) precipitations ranged from 16.2 mm to 37.5 mm across agro-Manitoba. Most of the southern region of Manitoba has seen less than 5 mm of precipitation accumulate this off season, while the majority of the East, Northwest, and Interlake regions have accumulated between 5 mm and 10 mm. The majority of the province has accumulated less than 40% of normal precipitation. Only a small area of the Northwest region has accumulated more than 50% of the 30-year average since November 1. The seasonal accumulation at the The Pas is 93% or normal.
