Yellow Warning - Blizzard
Blizzard conditions with poor visibility in snow and blowing snow are expected.
A low pressure system stalled in Hudson Bay is bringing strong northeasterly winds and another 5 cm of snow to communities along the coast.
The combination of 70 km/h wind gusts and falling snow will give near zero visibilities in falling and blowing snow.
Blizzard conditions will ease overnight or Monday morning as winds diminish.

Travel will be hazardous due to near-zero visibility.
