Don’t store your shovels yet this year.
It’s a few days before April, and southern Manitoba recently experienced a short Colorado low, but it seems there’s more snow coming soon.
Scott Kehler from Weatherlogics told 680 CJOB that an Alberta clipper is heading to the area for the long weekend, but it should be a brief system.
“Tomorrow night, we’re expecting a small amount of snow, probably around five centimetres in Winnipeg,” Kehler said. “With the warm weather that’s approaching, that snow won’t stay for long, but it indicates that spring is not quite ready to come yet.”
Kehler mentioned that areas near the Manitoba-Saskatchewan border could experience higher snowfall amounts — roughly 10 centimetres or so.
“It seems that the heaviest amounts will probably be in eastern Saskatchewan or near the Manitoba border. For southern Manitoba… it’s not a typical Alberta clipper. Part of it’s coming up from the United States, and that doesn’t mean that it’s necessarily going to be that strong.”
