Snowfall warning ends for a Regina leaving behind a slushy mess

Our spring snowstorm is finally coming to end.

Environment and Climate Change Canada has ended its snowfall warning.

The forecast says we’ll still see some light snowfall until tomorrow morning.

As we head into next week, temperatures will return to an average above zero.

The snowstorm began Tuesday with wet and heavy snowfall that continued consistently into this afternoon.

The temperature during the storm stayed steady between minus three and zero.

Around 20 cm of snow and precipitation has fallen in the Queen City, blanketing it in a thick slush.

We also saw some intense gusty winds blowing up to 80km at times.

Many highways in southern Saskatchewan were either closed or not recommended for travel during the three-day storm according to the highway hotline.

Many highways going east, west, and south of Regina are still not recommended for travel.

The temperature tonight is expected to drop to minus five but it’ll feel like minus 11. Roads in and around the city are subject to freezing due to the wet slushy environment.

If you’re traveling tonight or tomorrow morning, check the Highway Hotline for up-to-date road conditions before you head out.
