Could be a band of snow and/or freezing rain ahead of the warm front Monday morning, but accums look minimal over southern MB (the 2-4 cm snow forecast for Winnipeg tomorrow looks overdone according to most guidance. Bulk of snow will be associated near and north of the clipper system through the Interlake and central MB). As the system tracks east towards Ontario later in the day, winds will shift into the northwest and increase to 40G60-70 kmh by evening over southern MB, with temperatures falling below freezing along with occasional snowshowers and local blowing snow at times. Road conditions will become slick as the melting conditions of the afternoon quickly freeze up Monday evening. We could see a cm or 2 of snow in the wraparound behind the clipper system before things clear out by Tuesday morning. Colder conditions through mid week before a brief moderation again by late week with another clipper system. robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01577519556216420480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-46765636022945925132017-11-18T21:55:32.571-06:002017-11-18T21:55:32.571-06:00Thanks.

As noted above, models are trending towards milder weather again after the 21st but tough to say how long at this point. I think this is showing that the rest of November will be more of a variable pattern over us with intermittent cold and mild spells, rather than persistent cold through the rest of the month. robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01577519556216420480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-72981590020665176712017-11-12T16:11:43.726-06:002017-11-12T16:11:43.726-06:00Models fairly consistent in developing a large sca...Models fairly consistent in developing a large scale pattern change in the later third of November (21st onwards) with a large upper ridge over the western continent. This would bring above normal temperatures and likely erode some of our snowpack. I for one would like a little break from the cold!
