Many Manitobans can expect another blustery day with blizzard warnings continuing for several areas, and then another big dump of snow as the blizzard ends.

From Environment Canada:

Strong southerly winds near 50 km/h will develop over parts of southern Manitoba midday Saturday. These winds will produce blizzard conditions with extremely poor visibilities through Saturday afternoon.

The winds will ease Saturday evening, just as another area of snow moves into the region. Snow will continue through much of Saturday night as it slowly moves southwards out of the province. Storm-total snowfall may reach as high as 10-15 cm in some areas, including the City of Winnipeg.

Moderate northwest winds of 40-50 km/h will develop over the Red River Valley early Sunday morning as a colder air mass begins pushing into the region. More blowing snow is likely across the region through Sunday morning, then conditions will gradually improve in the afternoon as the wind slowly weakens.

Travel is expected to be hazardous due to reduced visibility. Visibility will be suddenly reduced to near zero at times in heavy snow and blowing snow.

Prepare for quickly changing and deteriorating travel conditions. If you must travel, keep others informed of your schedule and destination and carry an emergency kit and mobile phone. Limit outdoor activities. Ensure that shelter is provided for pets and outdoor animals.

Blizzard warnings are issued when widespread reduced visibilities of 400 metres or less are expected for at least 4 hours.
