Northern Saskatchewan in store for nasty weather

People living in the Waskesiu or La Ronge areas, better get your snow shovels ready.

Environment Canada has issued a snowfall warning for those parts.

“La Ronge could see five centimetres today … another five centimetres tonight, but areas further north could get anywhere from 10 to 15 centimetres by the time all is said and done,” said Albert Skiba, meteorologist

The snow is expected to taper off by tomorrow morning.

People in Prince Albert area can relax.

“Maybe might see a few flakes today, but it will be mostly rain and after that it will be a mix of sun and cloud until the end of the week,” said Skiba.

If you are travelling north this afternoon, you are best advised to check with the highway hotline first.
