Those hoping to enjoy some weekend sunshine in the Cochrane region might just be out of luck. With thunderstorms predicted for Friday and rain throughout the weekend, Cochranites might be better to pack an umbrella rather than the sunscreen.
According to Environment Canada, Friday should start out sunny with increasing cloudiness near noon then a few showers.
There is risk of a thunderstorm in the afternoon. Later in the day, there will likely be showers ending after midnight then partly cloudy. And then the risk of a thunderstorm in the evening and after midnight. Daytime high of 21 C.
On Saturday, July 19 there will be a mix of sun and cloud with a 60 percent chance of showers all day. High of 19 C.
