Canada’s environment issued a snow warning in some areas, including Gillam, Flin Flon and Shamattawa, on Monday, saying 10 to 15 inches of snow was expected. The Meteorological Agency explained that a low-pressure system moving through the central meadows will bring snow to western central Manitoba from Monday afternoon. The snow is expected to end by Tuesday afternoon. Environment Canada noted that the snow will be wet and heavy at times. The heaviest snowfall is expected on Monday night through Tuesday morning. Residents are asked to prepare for the worsening conditions, as the snow can make it difficult to move and reduce the visibility on the roads. Environment Canada said it may need to extend snowfall warnings to the south and east, as there is greater certainty about the course of the build-up.
