Regina residents are preparing for a shift in weather tonight as Environment Canada forecasts the risk of rain or snow, with potential for freezing rain, to move into the area. After a warm Wednesday that saw temperatures reach 14°C, the city is facing a change in conditions that may impact travel for Thursday morning.
The weather system is expected to arrive overnight. While there are currently no official weather alerts in effect for the city, motorists are advised to monitor the forecast for any changes in road conditions.
Thursday will be cooler with periods of snow possible. This shift marks a contrast to the unseasonably warm weather earlier this week. Warmer conditions are expected to return by the weekend, with highs of 13°C forecast for Sunday and 18°C for Monday.
SGI Saskatchewan reminds drivers that failing to adjust to changing road conditions is the leading cause of collisions during winter weather. Motorists are advised to drive slowly and maintain a safe following distance.
For those planning to travel, the Saskatchewan Ministry of Highways offers up-to-date road information through the Highway Hotline. Residents can also use the Track My Plow feature, which remains active until April 30, 2026, to monitor road clearing efforts.
