Wintery precipitation is coming to the Parkland and is expected to last until Sunday.
A Colorado low will cross the northern plains and with it will be periods of snow and freezing drizzle.
Long periods of freezing drizzle, leading to icy sidewalks and roads are very possible.
Most areas will experience a mix of precipitation until late Saturday when it will shift to snow.
We won’t face the worst of the storm as the heaviest snow and strongest winds will be experienced in the US in the Dakotas.
Areas near the US – Canada border could see more than 10 cm of snow.
The storm will be gone from the area by the middle of Sunday.
