Inclement weather in western Saskatchewan Saturday night is affecting road conditions.

Maidstone RCMP have responded to multiple motor vehicle incidents since late Saturday afternoon, including collisions and vehicles in the ditch. Officers are reporting blizzard-like conditions with reduced to zero visibility, icy roads and blowing snow.

Similar conditions are being reported by officers in the Leader and Maple Creek areas and the Highway Hotline shows a weather system moving east from the Alberta border that is impacting areas including Meadow Lake, North Battleford, Glaslyn, Turtleford and St. Walburg, among others. Travel is currently not recommended in those areas.

The system is expected to blow through Regina overnight with light snow and winds in the 70 km/h range expected, but conditions are not expected to be as bad as they are in the western part of the province.

If you are planning to travel, you are asked to check the Highway Hotline first.
