Environment Canada is warning residents in southwestern Saskatchewan to prepare for near-zero visibility conditions after it issued several snow squall warnings on Thursday.
The weather service said periods of brief but intense snowfall are expected to combine as a weather system moves through the area, rapidly reducing visibility in some areas.
“Snow squalls cause weather conditions to vary considerably; changes from clear skies to heavy snow within just a few kilometres are common,” the alert reads.
As of 3:45 p.m., the alert had been issued for areas including Swift Current, Shaunavon, Gull Lake, Piapot, and Lucky Lake. Click here to keep up to date with weather warnings in your area.
