A mix of rain and snow for Thanksgiving Monday for much of southern Saskatchewan.
Where: Areas in and around the Trans-Canada Highway and south to the international border.
What: A mix of rain and snow, with potentially 5 to 10 cm of wet snow accumulating tonight through the end of Monday.
Remarks: Temperatures will linger near the freezing mark today with some communites beginning with rain before switching over to wet snow and tapering off tonight. Final accumulations will vary widely due to a combination of melting from milder ground temperatures and changes to precipitation type and intensity. Broadly, 5 cm of heavy, wet snow is anticipated, with locally higher amounts.
Travel conditions could deteriorate quickly due to a combination of accumulating snow, sudden poor visibilities, and icy patches. Take frequent breaks when shovelling snow.
When skies clear on Tuesday, any fallen snow will swiftly melt away as temperatures rebound for the remainder of the week.
Watch for updated forecasts and additional potential weather alerts as the event nears.
