Residents in Regina should prepare for difficult travel conditions on Monday, March 30, 2026, as a late-season snowstorm is expected to bring 10 to 15 centimetres of snow to the area.

Environment Canada has issued a Special Weather Statement for the region, warning that the accumulation of heavy, wet snow will likely lead to slippery roads and reduced visibility throughout the day. The storm is part of a larger system moving across southern Saskatchewan, which is expected to taper off by early Tuesday morning.

According to local news, Environment Canada meteorologist James Colangelo said the storm is being driven by a low-pressure system moving across the northern United States. While Regina is expected to receive 10 to 15 centimetres, areas near Moose Jaw could see as much as 20 centimetres of snow. The weather system is also affecting communities across the southern part of the province, including Swift Current, Weyburn, Estevan, Carlyle, and Moosomin.

Commuters are advised to exercise caution during the morning and afternoon rush hours, as the heavy snowfall is anticipated to make roads treacherous. Drivers can check for the latest road conditions through the Saskatchewan Ministry of Highways, while Saskatchewan Government Insurance continues to remind motorists to adjust their driving habits for winter conditions.

Although late-season snow is not unprecedented in Saskatchewan, meteorologists note that the weather can be frustrating for residents who had already started to transition to spring. The region is expected to see colder-than-normal temperatures continue through the first week of April.
