Reduced visibility is expected on Friday due to blowing snow.
Environment Canada and Climate Change has issued a blowing snow advisory for southeastern Manitoba.
Gusty northwesterly winds will develop Friday morning and persist into Friday evening. These gusty winds combined with falling snow will lead to significantly reduced visibilities in blowing snow.
Conditions will improve Friday evening as winds gradually diminish and snow tapers off.
Travel is expected to be hazardous due to reduced visibility in some locations. Visibility may be significantly and suddenly reduced to near zero.
If visibility is reduced while driving, slow down, watch for taillights ahead and be prepared to stop.
Blowing snow advisories are issued when winds are expected to create blowing snow giving poor visibility to 800 metres or less for at least 3 hours.
