60% chance of rain doesn%26#39;t mean much. It usually means sunny with a quick shower in the afternoon followed by sun and HOT! You will be fine.

THem afternoon storms can be real strong at times so if they come then take shelter.

Don%26#39;t think a days goes by that ';chance of'; isn%26#39;t in the forecast down there. It%26#39;s like up here in the winter. They%26#39;d rather predict snow and be wrong than not predict it and get slammed.

No big deal. As was mentioned before, most of the storms are short. More often than not if it%26#39;s in the afternoon you%26#39;ll run inside, eat and be back on the beach in an hour or two. If it blows through at night you might see some pretty neat lighting strikes.

Worst downpour I remember was during an early 90%26#39;s trip. Hit around 11am. Something like 4'; of rain in two hours. All the low areas were flooded. Streets and intersections were 1-2 foot deep.

We were at south end of Windy Hill over looking the old Barefoot Landing Campground. I think the phrase ';unhappy camper'; was coined that day.

We headed to the mall along with every other vacationer. By 2pm the water had soaked in and we were on the beach.

In MB, especially in the summer, the weather is very ';iffy';! It can be raining on one side of the street and not the other! We locals always say if you don%26#39;t like the weather, wait 30 minutes and it will change so don%26#39;t let the weather reports discourage you. Enjoy your trip!

Like anybob says...if you dont like the weather, just wait 30 minutes! :)

Alot of the higher percentages are caused by the afternoon seabreeze that is created (something to do with thermal warming and all) this will sometimes create...not all the time...a breif, but sometimes intense afternoon shower...that, like Bob says, is over almost as soon as it starts.

And check the weather closer to your dates...its amazing how fast the weather report changes around here!
