Old Man Winter does not want to give up on Foothills County this year.

Environment Canada has issued a Snowfall Warning for Foothills County on Tuesday (April 1), thanks to some heavy snowfall that is expected tonight.

The precipitation will begin as a mix of rain and snow this afternoon but will change to heavy snow this evening.

While the area is expected to receive between 5 and 10 cm of snow, some areas could receive up to 15 cm of snow, as snowfall amounts will vary throughout the region.

According to Environment Canada, the snowfall will end by Wednesday morning.

Due to rapidly accumulating snow, travel could become difficult in some locations, and visibility may suddenly be reduced at times due to heavy snowfall.

Environment Canada is advising people to be prepared for quickly changing and deteriorating travel conditions.
