A freezing rain warning for most of the Battlefords area has ended. Environment Canada had reissued the warning when freezing rain re-developed in the region Friday morning.

A change-over to snow is expected during the morning.

The freezing rain has made driving conditions treacherous in the region. The Saskatchewan Highway Hotline is not recommending travel on many highways, including Highway 16 from Maymont west to the Alberta border.
