There's still some uncertainty with the forecast in our region heading into Friday night and Saturday but perhaps less severe than the western half of Saskatchewan.

Emergency Preparedness Meteorologist with Environment Canada John-Paul Cragg says the system seems to be breaking up as it heads our way.

"As that snow was passing through North Battleford it was a lot stronger, the echoes were quite a bit stronger and a lot more snow fell. By the time it got to Saskatoon it really started to break down. Moving into Humboldt it's not going to be that strong, you guys can expect about two centimetres of snow by the time this is done."

Cragg says we will have some wind gusting to 60 kilometres/hour but visibility should still be decent, however with temperatures starting to cool off to more normal daytime highs the roads could become a hazard.

"Over the next 48 hours or so temperatures will be well below zero so anything that melted on the roadways will freeze and that could make things quite slick. Especially with a couple centimetres of snow on top of it."

By the time a new work week arrives temperatures will climb back to single digit highs but Cragg warns, don't toss the toques and gloves aside just yet.

"Winter can last a long time, there is still a chance for Winter to come back. It has been a warm Winter, this is a warm February, perhaps it will carry on. We are forecasting a warmer March and April but there is still that chance in March of seeing that cold air to march back into the province."
