==DISCUSSION==
A STRONG FALL WEATHER SYSTEM WITH AN UNCERTAIN WINTRY MIX OF
PRECIPITATION IS POISED TO IMPACT MANITOBA BEGINNING VERY EARLY ON
SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY.
THIS SYSTEM WILL ENTER MANITOBA FROM SASKATCHEWAN WITH THE
PRECIPITATION LIKELY AS RAIN BEFORE TRANSITIONING TO SNOW. THERE IS
CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTY REGARDING THE TIMING AND LOCATION WHEN THE
TYPE OF PRECIPITATION WILL CHANGE.
IF THE TRANSITION OCCURS EARLY, THEN AREAS UNDER THIS WATCH MAY
WARRANT AN UPGRADE TO A SNOWFALL WARNING. HOWEVER, IF THE TRANSITION
OCCURS LATER, THEN THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR REGIONS IN THIS WATCH TO
GET UPWARDS OF 30 TO 50 MM OF RAIN BEFORE THE TRANSITION TO SNOW.
TRAVEL IS EXPECTED TO BE HAZARDOUS DUE TO REDUCED VISIBILITY IN SOME
LOCATIONS. SURFACES SUCH AS HIGHWAYS, ROADS, WALKWAYS AND PARKING
LOTS MAY BECOME ICY AND SLIPPERY. LOCALIZED FLOODING IN LOW-LYING
AREAS IS POSSIBLE.
PLEASE CONTINUE TO MONITOR ALERTS AND FORECASTS ISSUED BY
ENVIRONMENT CANADA. TO REPORT SEVERE WEATHER, SEND AN EMAIL TO
MBSTORM(AT)EC.GC.CA, CALL 1-800-239-0484 OR POST REPORTS ON X USING
