Conditions are expected to worsen overnight and throughout the day on Monday.

Schools in many rural areas across the province are expected to have a “snow day” as accumulations increase and driving conditions continue to be hazardous.

Late Sunday night Turtle Mountain School Division announced that all schools in the division will be closed Monday due to the storm and other rural schools divisions are expected to follow suit.
