A major spring storm with strong winds and heavy snow is expected over Alberta. An intense low will develop in Alberta beginning Wednesday morning and will cross into Saskatchewan on Thursday and through the day on Friday. Strong northwesterly winds with gusts of 90 to 100 km/h are possible across portions of east-central to southeastern portions of the province beginning early Thursday morning. In addition to the severe winds, potentially significant rain or snow will fall over northern parts of Alberta and Saskatchewan. The heaviest precipitation is expected to begin on Thursday morning with 20 to 40 mm of precipitation anticipated by Friday night. The highest potential for snowfall will be across northern Alberta and into north-central Saskatchewan. Snowfall totals could exceed 20 cm in some locations. Damage to roofs, fences, branches or soft shelters is likely. Prepare for some disruptions to transportation, services, and utilities. Driving conditions will likely be very difficult. High-sided vehicles could be overturned by the wind. Secure loose objects. If outside, protect yourself from flying or falling debris. ### Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada.
