With very little rain falling in the majority of Manitoba, one southern Manitoba town got some rainfall but it might have been more than what they wished for.

The town of Birtle, southwest of Riding Mountain National Park, was drenched with 150 millimetres, or six inches, of rain on Thursday evening.

The area also saw pea-sized hail.

Communities within about a 10-kilometre radius of Birtle received far less rain, around 15-20 mm, while the rest of the area beyond the 10-kilometre radius received no rain at all.

In Dauphin, there’s a 30 percent chance of showers on Sunday afternoon.
