Saskatchewan Storm Update

A winter storm continues to dump heavy snow across Montana and is extending north into Saskatchewan at this hour. Winter Storm Warnings are in effect for the south central and southeast part of the province.

A quick scan of observations showed all locales in SK. under the freezing mark this morning with snow beginning to fall in the southern most areas near the US border. I expect nearly 20cm of snow by storms end from Gravelbourg to Estevan. Close to 30cm may fall in Coronach and Rockglen. Avoid travel in Southern Saskatchewan today. Already over 20cm have been reported in Northern Montana with close to 50cm in the mountains and southern part of that state. Numerous roads are closed. Winds are very gusty creating blizzard conditions at times.
