Flin Flon was hit by 26 centimetres of snow at the front end of the weather system that entered Manitoba from Saskatchewan, while Thompson had 17 centimetres and The Pas had eight centimetres plus some rain. Those communities are not forecast to get further significant accumulations.

The snow is expected to taper off to flurries Tuesday evening as the weather system moves into Hudson Bay.
