Residents of St. Theresa Point, Manitoba, should prepare for a shift in weather this week as temperatures climb and mixed precipitation moves into the area.
After a cold weekend that saw feels-like temperatures drop significantly, Environment Canada is forecasting warmer conditions starting Monday, April 20. The region can expect snow or rain on Monday, with similar conditions expected to return on Thursday, April 23, and Friday, April 24.
There are currently no active weather alerts in effect for the area. However, because St. Theresa Point is a remote community accessible only by air or seasonal winter roads, the combination of warming temperatures and expected precipitation may create slippery travel conditions.
While the community is not specifically identified in current flood warnings, the Province of Manitoba notes that rising temperatures across the province are expected to increase the potential for rapid spring runoff. Residents planning travel are encouraged to monitor local conditions closely throughout the week.
