People planning a road trip to Regina for the CFL West final may want to wait, according to Environment and Climate Change Canada meteorologist Terri Lang.

Freezing rain, followed by snow, is forecast to hit central Saskatchewan.

“We’re going to be looking at some pretty tricky driving conditions until the temperature works its way above freezing probably later in the morning (Saturday),” Lang told 650 CKOM.

The system moving from east to west is expected to reach the Lloydminster area on Friday night.

“Lloydminister down through North Battleford through Saskatoon, probably clip places like Prince Albert, Melfort and Nipawin,” she said about the storm’s path.
