MOOSE JAW - Areas around Moose Jaw and extending west to the border along Highway 1 are posing problems for drivers.

Highway 2 from Moose Jaw to Tuxford is seeing slush, drifting snow and ice as well as reduced visibility and the Highway Hotline does not recommend travel. Similar conditions mean Highway 301 to Buffalo Pound Park is not recommended for travel. Neither is Highway 363 leading out of Moose Jaw, where there are snow drifts, drifting snow and ice, as well as reduced visibility.

Highway 1 from Mortlanch nearly to Waldeck is also not recommended for travel by the Highway Hotline, with swirling, drifting and loose snow plus icy conditions are making travel dangerous.

Highway 19 from the Number One to Hodgeville is similarly affected, as well as part of Highway 363 east and west of Hodgeville.

This is all as of 1 p.m. Saturday.

Be sure to check the Highway Hotline before venturing out.
