A relatively fast moving Alberta Clipper has hit central Saskatchewan with strong winds, 10-15 cm of snow (heavier in some locations), and slow going for Saskatchewan travellers. 

Environment Canada continues its snowfall warning for the Humboldt area. Accumulations of up to 20 cm of snow are expected by this evening with the storm expected to move through overnight.  

Highway 5 east and west of Humboldt have snowpacked sections in sheltered areas, but much of the snow is being driven across the highways with north winds from 40 km gusting to 60. Visibility is extremely reduced. 

Humboldt streets have considerable snowpack with drifting.  

Temperatures are expected to drop as the clipper drags in cold air from the north. Wind chill values of minus 30 are expected Monday night with even colder values likely by early Wednesday morning. The bitter cold will moderate later in the week. 

Be prepared to adjust your driving with changing road conditions. If visibility is reduced while driving, slow down, watch for tail lights ahead and be prepared to stop.  

Snowfall warnings are issued when significant snowfall is expected or is occurring.
