P.A. to avoid snow dump: Environment Canada
It looks like Prince Albert and the immediate surrounding areas will dodge the worst of the snow heading our way from the U.S.
Initial forecasts called for up to 10 cm of snow for the city, but that now appears much less likely, according to Environment Canada’s John Paul Cragg.
“There’s a pretty strong band of snow that’s moving with this system, but it happens to be a little west of P.A.,” he told paNOW. “The southern parts of the province could see up to 10 cm, but to the west in the Parkland region, we’ll likely see five cm.”
Cragg said dumps of snow will be localized, and snow in mid-April is not uncommon in the area with the merging of cold and warmer weather systems.
