The shovels may not get much of a break, with more snowfall forecast for Winnipeg and communities across southern Manitoba on Friday.<\/p>\n
“We have a lingering trough from a system that moved through the northern U.S. states over the past couple days that’s going to be parked over southern Manitoba through the day,” says Rose Carlsen, a meteorologist with Environment and Climate Change Canada (EC).\u00a0<\/p>\n
Earlier in the week, all of southern Manitoba was under a snowfall warning. The accumulation was quite a bit less than expected, especially for Winnipeg, which ended up getting roughly 4 cm of snow. Parts of western Manitoba received between 15 and 25 cm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“We’re expecting this light snow to continue throughout the day and start to taper off this evening and into the overnight periods.”<\/p>\n
While the snow is expected to be present over southern Manitoba, it won’t be enough to cause a snowfall warning.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“We’re not expecting a ton of accumulation with it. Maybe a couple of centimetres.”<\/p>\n
Most of the week, the area had much milder weather than normal, hovering around zero degrees Celsius. Friday will be cooling off to more normal temperatures, reaching a high of minus 11.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“The nice part about it is this lingering trough is saving us from the colder weather they’re experiencing a little farther west over Saskatchewan.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The shovels may not get much of a break, with more snowfall forecast for Winnipeg and communities across…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":487693,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194296],"tags":[49,48,22073],"class_list":["post-487692","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-winnipeg","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-winnipeg"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/487692","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=487692"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/487692\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/487693"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=487692"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=487692"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=487692"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
