Blizzard Warning Out

3:26 PM CDT Wednesday 13 March 2019
Blizzard warning in effect for:

• Mun. of Emerson-Franklin incl. Roseau River
• R.M. of De Salaberry incl. St-Pierre-Jolys and St. Malo
• R.M. of Hanover incl. Steinbach Niverville and Grunthal
• R.M. of La Broquerie incl. Marchand

Blizzard conditions with poor visibility in snow and blowing snow are expected or occurring.

An intense disturbance tracking across the United States will bring strong northerly winds and moderate to heavy snowfall to the southern Red River Valley.

Snowfall associated with this disturbance will enter the region tonight and continue on Thursday before tapering off late Thursday morning or early Thursday afternoon. Total snowfall accumulations of 8 to 15 cm will be possible.

In addition to the snow, intense northerly winds are expected to develop overnight and continue on Thursday. Winds gusting at times to 80 km/h will combine with the falling snow to produce widespread blowing snow resulting in blizzard conditions. As the precipitation exits the region visibilities are expected to improve. However, the strong winds will likely continue to produce heavy drifting and persistent blowing snow into Thursday evening.
Travel is expected to be hazardous due to reduced visibility. If visibility is reduced while driving, turn on your lights and maintain a safe following distance.

Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to MBstorm@canada.ca or tweet reports using #MBStorm.

Saying Goodbye to Chance & Hello to Maysa

 

As some of you may not have known, we lost Chance early this autumn. She was 12yrs of age. She developed an inflamed disc, which caused her a lot of pain. She had a great life. She was happy & well cared for. We will miss her.

This was one of the last photos that was taken of her.

We miss this goofy face.

The day that Chance crossed over the Rainbow Bridge, we received a phone call from the guy at the shelter, where Chance was born. He had said that he had a girl for us. We waited a week to meet this girl. Well, she is now part of our family. She’ll never replace Chance, but she does fill the emptiness that was left.

So, meet Maysa. She’s 2 1/2 yrs old. She’s special too, like Chance. She was born with a curve in her spine. She has several discs that are fused together, right from birth. She is sweet & very loving. Oh, and spoiled already. 

Maysa

This is one of the first pictures that was taken of her. It is from the first day, on her ride to her new home.

As you can tell, she’s settled in quite nicely. The couches are hers & she loves all the toys.

This last photo really shows her back.

So thank you for saying good-bye to Chance with me & welcoming Maysa.

Maysa says come back again soon to say hi.
