HEAVY, RAPIDLY ACCUMULATING, SNOWFALL BEGINS EARLY THIS MORNING IN
WESTERN SASKATCHEWAN ALONG THE YELLOWHEAD CORRIDOR AND WILL SPREAD

HEAVIEST SNOWFALL IS FORECAST THROUGH SASKATOON AND CONTINUING EAST
TOWARDS YORKTON. 10 TO 20 CM OF SNOW IS FORECAST ACROSS THE PROVINCE

PREPARE FOR QUICKLY CHANGING AND DETERIORATING TRAVEL CONDITIONS.
RAPIDLY ACCUMULATING SNOW WILL MAKE TRAVEL DIFFICULT. VISIBILITY MAY
BE SUDDENLY REDUCED AT TIMES IN HEAVY SNOW. SURFACES SUCH AS
HIGHWAYS, ROADS, WALKWAYS AND PARKING LOTS MAY BECOME DIFFICULT TO
NAVIGATE DUE TO ACCUMULATING SNOW.
