RCMP: All major highways in Southern Manitoba to close once storm hits

RCMP says all major highways in Southern Manitoba will close at midnight or once the snow begins in our province.

Police say travel is strongly discouraged and that alternate plans should be arranged.

RCMP also note that if you do decide to travel, first responders may not be able to get to you if you’re stranded or need assistance.
