Thanks to blowing snow, roads west and southwest of Moose Jaw are a little dicey today.
Yesterday, Environment and Climate Change Canada declared a snow squall warning for that portion of the province due to snow and wind reducing visibility to near zero at times.
This morning, road conditions took a big hit as a result of that weather.
Roads around Assiniboia, Coronach, and Gravelbourg areas are listed as having the following conditions on the Highway Hotline:
- SlushWinter conditions.
- Icy or slippery sections.
- Loose snow
- Wet, subject to freezing
- Swirling snow
- Drifting snow
- Winter conditions exist
If you plan on traveling around southwest Saskatchewan today, keep updated on road conditions.
As snow ploughs are sure to be a common sight on southwest Saskatchewan highways today, ensure you follow the rules and regulations for road etiquette around the machinery.
