Prolonged freezing drizzle forecast for southern Saskatchewan ended

UPDATE: All advisories mentioned in this story have ended

Environment Canada has ended a special weather statement for parts of Saskatchewan after another low-pressure system moved across the province.

A wintery mix of precipitation was forecast for southern parts of the province starting early Friday morning and lasting through Saturday evening, the agency said.

The cause was a Colorado low moving across the northern plains.

Environment Canada said there was the potential for prolonged periods of freezing drizzle which could lead to icy conditions on roads and sidewalks.
