Warmer weather for the weekend
The snow is expected to taper off this afternoon though the snowfall warning is being continued.
A few flurries are expected tomorrow in the Kenora and Dryden areas.
Monica Vaswani from Environment Canada says they are expecting things to warm up this weekend finally.
“In terms of temperatures, normal for this time of year, at least in the daytime, is +7 degrees,” says Vaswani.
“So, we do have to wait until the end of the workweek. We’re looking at a daytime high of +6 on Friday in the forecast and anywhere from +8 to +11 on Saturday.”
Vaswani says right now the forecast for the weekend is looking pretty good.
“Both of those days (Friday and Saturday) are expected to be sunny. Sunday is on the average side of +10, but there may be rain showers associated with that.”
The rains and warmer temperatures should help melt much of the snow that has fallen over the past 24 hours.
