UPDATE: The freezing rain warning has ended.
Freezing rain is expected to develop Saturday morning in the Grande Prairie area. Environment Canada has issued a freezing rain warning for the Grande Prairie – Beaverlodge – Valleyview region.
It’s expected conditions will improve in the afternoon as temperatures rise above zero degrees Celsius.
“Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become icy and slippery. Take extra care when walking or driving in affected areas. Be prepared to adjust your driving with changing road conditions.”
Freezing rain warnings are issued when rain falling in sub-zero temperatures creates ice build-up and icy surfaces.
