Is gas going down tonight?
Historically, prices drift down overnight from Wednesday into Thursday in Winnipeg — the 90-day pattern shows about 1.5¢/L lower the next day. That's the discounting leg of Winnipeg's strong weekly cycle at work: unless the forecast above flags a rack-driven jump, waiting until tomorrow usually pays.
Winnipeg's weekly price pattern
Median price by day of week over the last 90 days. Winnipeg runs a classic prairie Edgeworth cycle — a midweek peak (usually around Wednesday) and a weekend trough — so the day-of-week spread here is among the widest in Canada and genuinely worth timing.

|---|---|---|
| Sunday | 164¢/L | |
| Monday | 163¢/L | |
| Tuesday | 162¢/L | cheapest day |
| Wednesday | 170¢/L | ← today |

Tomorrow's gas prices: FAQ
Will gas prices go up or down tomorrow in Winnipeg?
Our forecast combines Winnipeg’s strong weekly price cycle with the 7-day trend, WTI crude and the wholesale rack. The current call is shown at the top of this page and refreshes through the day. In Winnipeg the calendar genuinely matters: most weeks prices jump around midweek and drift down into the weekend, so where you are in the cycle is often the biggest single input.
Is gas going down tonight in Winnipeg?
It depends where the week stands. After the midweek jump, Winnipeg prices typically decay a little each day into the weekend — so on a Thursday or Friday, tonight-versus-tomorrow often does favour waiting. Right before the next reset (typically Tuesday night into Wednesday), the opposite holds. The "tonight" section above compares today’s and tomorrow’s typical levels for the current day of the week.
What day of the week is gas cheapest in Winnipeg?
The weekend trough — typically Saturday through Monday — is the cheap end of Winnipeg’s weekly cycle, with the midweek reset (usually around Wednesday) the expensive end. The 90-day table on this page shows the current pattern. Where you buy still stacks on top of when: Costco, Red River Co-op and the Regent/McPhillips/Pembina corridors run under a quiet neighbourhood corner on any day of the week.
How far ahead can gas prices be predicted?
Reliably, about 2–3 days. Winnipeg’s weekly cycle gives the near-term forecast an unusually solid backbone, and wholesale rack moves pass through to the pumps with a short, fairly consistent lag. Beyond a few days, crude-oil swings and prairie refinery events dominate and any forecast becomes weather-report territory.
