Residents in Neepawa, Manitoba, should prepare for snow and blowing snow today as a weather system moves through the region on March 12, 2026. The forecast suggests that the winter weather will likely cause poor visibility and difficult driving conditions throughout the day.

According to Environment Canada, the community can expect between 2 to 4 cm of snow accumulation. Winds are predicted to reach gusts of 50 km/h during the day and will likely increase to 60 km/h tonight.

The mix of falling snow and high wind gusts is expected to make travel hazardous on local roads and highways into the night. Drivers should be aware that visibility may be reduced suddenly while they are behind the wheel.

Temperatures are also expected to drop, with wind chills reaching as low as -26 overnight. This change comes as the wind shifts to the northwest during the evening hours.
