Some parts of Saskatchewan are getting acquainted with winter and dicey driving conditions again.
Environment Canada issued snowfall warnings early Wednesday for central areas of the province including Meadow Lake, Prince Albert, Humboldt, Melfort, Nipawin, Hudson Bay, Kamsack and continuing north into Waskesiu, La Ronge and Buffalo Narrows.
“It’s more the central part of Saskatchewan that will be hit the hardest,” said meteorologist Dave Baggaley.
“We’re looking at generally around 10 centimetres to fall today. For areas closer to the Manitoba border, we’re looking at the snow to persist tonight and through Thursday so it could be another 10 centimetres on top of that,” he added.
Saskatoon will miss the brunt of the storm and will see about two to four cm while Regina will get mainly rain on Wednesday with a couple of centimetres of snow overnight.
Baggaley said temperatures remained warm enough to eliminate the risk of freezing rain, however the snow was challenging enough for drivers on the highways.
“It’s pretty slippery in some areas, ” Todd Evans said while driving on Highway 16, east of Saskatoon. “Looks like the sanding trucks have been out. It’s pretty wet now.”
The Highway Hotline is reporting a mixed bag of winter conditions across a large portion of central and southeastern Saskatchewan, but as of 8 a.m. had not issued any travel advisories.
