Get ready for yet another wet weekend with showers in the forecast for both Friday and Saturday — just beause it hasn’t been wet enough — before the skies brighten up with the new week.

For Thursday, Environment Canada predicts sunshine will give way to clouds by late morning then there’s a 30-per-cent chance of afternoon showers and the risk of a thunderstorm with a muggy high of 27 C.

For Friday, there’s a mix of sun and cloud and a 40-per-cent chance of afternoon showers and a thunderstorm with a high of 26. Along with showers, the nighttime low is a forecast 17 C.

Saturday’s daytime forecast is short and not so sweet: showers and 23 C. Overnight, expect cloudy periods with 40 per cent chance of showers and a low of 16 C.

Sunday is expected to be a mix of sun and cloud with a 30-per-cent chance of showers, high of 25 C and low of just 11 C.

We’re racking up more rain days when the summer of 2017 is already a record setter, according to local weather historian by Rolf Campbell, who gathers raw statistics from Environment Canada going back to 1873 for his tweets as @YOW_Weather. Monday was the city’s 109th rainy day of the year, more than three weeks over the August 8 average.

This year also leads the pack in rain days from January 1 to August 8, Campbell tweeted.
