September 9th Update:

Early this morning around 4:15, the frost advisory ended.

With an overnight low of 7 degrees tonight, the forecast isn't calling for a risk of frost right now.

----

Environment Canada has issued a frost advisory for many parts of southern Manitoba, including Riding Mountain National Park, Brandon, Portage la Prairie, and Winnipeg.

A ridge of high pressure will give rise to clear skies and light winds which will lead to another night of patchy frost across southern Manitoba.

The weather authority warns some plants may be damaged or even destroyed by frost, and are advising producers to cover up plants, especially those in frost-prone areas.

Warmer, more seasonable temperatures are expected to push into the eastern Prairies by mid-week and persist into the weekend which will bring an end to the sub zero overnight lows for the time being.

As of 3:28 p.m., the frost advisory is in effect for:

  • Hamiota Mun. incl. McConnell and Lavinia
  • Mun. of Clanwilliam-Erickson
  • Mun. of Harrison Park incl. Onanole Sandy Lake and Newdale
  • Prairie View Mun. incl. Bird Tail Creek Res.
  • R.M. of Minto-Odanah incl. Minnedosa and Moore Park
