Many parts of the Prairies, along with other parts of Canada, might have to dig themselves out ahead of this coming weekend as a wintry wallop continues.<\/p>\n

Environment and Climate Change Canada says another Alberta Clipper is expected to dump upwards of 15 centimetres of snow across the southern parts of Saskatchewan and Manitoba.<\/p>\n

The weather office says strong westerly wind gusts of up to 70 kilometres an hour are also expected.<\/p>\n

In Alberta, areas southeast of Edmonton can expect morning commutes to be muddled as blowing snow tracks across the region, resulting in poor visibility.<\/p>\n
