Blowing Snow Advisory
3:06 p.m. CST Thursday 16 January 2025

Blowing Snow Advisory in effect for:
  • City of Regina
Poor visibility in blowing snow is expected tonight, along with very strong winds.

Northwest winds gusting up to 80 km/h will combine with falling snow to cause poor visibility starting this afternoon or this evening. Conditions will improve by Friday morning as winds weaken and snow tapers off.

Travel is expected to be hazardous due to reduced visibility in some locations.

Be prepared to adjust your driving with changing road conditions. Consider postponing non-essential travel until conditions improve. Ensure that shelter is provided for pets and outdoor animals.

Blowing snow advisories are issued when winds are expected to create blowing snow giving poor visibility to 800 metres or less for at least 3 hours.

Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to SKstorm@ec.gc.ca or tweet reports using #SKStorm.
