SOUTHEAST SASKATCHEWAN - A freezing rain warning has been issued for southeast Saskatchewan on Saturday.

According to Environment Canada, a pocket of warm air aloft, combined with falling precipitation and sub-freezing surface temperatures, will result in an area of freezing rain, beginning late Saturday. 

"Freezing rain will begin overnight tonight in southeastern Saskatchewan and progress northeast into west-central Manitoba by Sunday morning. Freezing rain will gradually taper off by midday Sunday."

Estevan, Weyburn and Moosomin are among the communities covered in the warning. A total of 60 RMs in eastern Saskatchewan are covered.
