In a flurry of rapidly changing forecasts for Saskatchewan on Monday, Environment Canada says a late season Alberta Clipper is set to bring unpredictable weather from Tuesday morning and lasting into Wednesday.

Weather statements said areas along and near the Yellowhead Highway have temperatures near the freezing mark, so it was hard to predict how much snow would accumulate or if it would melt on contact with the ground.
Snowfall warnings of up to 20 cm were issued for parts of central Saskatchewan like Humboldt, with 5 to 10 cm of snow expected in Saskatoon and Prince Albert, but Regina and Moose Jaw are forecast to escape the worst of it, with Environment Canada saying rain showers on Tuesday would change to light snow near midnight.

Places on the southern edge of areas where snowfall warnings were issued would see wet snow with less accumulation, Environment Canada said, and the storm would also bring a risk of brief freezing rain in this area on Tuesday into Tuesday night.
For areas south of the Yellowhead and Trans-Canada highways, the storm would bring rain and even a few lightning strikes could occur, Environment Canada said.
The weather agency also added a disclaimer that there is a possibility that snowfall warnings would be expanded southward as the system approaches.
