The second major storm system in less than a week is beginning to push through the eastern Prairies this morning. This system is moving up from the Montana’s and the western Dakota’s and is already spreading into southern Manitoba. This system will bring a rain/snow mix to eastern Saskatchewan and Manitoba over the next three days. This will bring a total of 15 to 35 mm of total precipitation through the weekend. The heaviest snows will occur on the backside of the low which means that eastern Saskatchewan and western Manitoba will receive a trace to a few centimeters of snow. This snow will be temporary as temperatures will remain above the freezing mark throughout the weekend.

The good news is that winter will likely wait until November to make its appearance.
