A woman is in hospital this morning following a serious collision on Winnipeg's Perimeter Highway on Monday afternoon.

Emergency crews were called to the westbound lanes of the South Perimeter highway between Pembina Highway and Wilkes Avenue around 4 p.m.

The RCMP says that a car and truck collided, with the driver of the car suffering life-threatening injuries.

STARS Air Ambulance responded to the scene and transported to the women to Health Sciences Centre.

The weather story this week will be the very cold temperatures we’re expecting leading up to, and more than likely through, Christmas and Boxing Day, but the outlook has improved a bit from the bone-chilling temperatures first forecast.

Owen Pederson's second goal of the game at 1:54 of overtime gave the Winnipeg ICE a 4-3 victory over the Brandon Wheat Kings Saturday night at the ICE Cave inside Wayne Fleming Arena.

Zach Benson also scored twice giving him a team high 20 goals and 46 points heading into the holiday break.

Brett Hyland replied with two goals for the Wheat Kings while Luke Shipley had the other.

Winnipeg outshot Brandon 36-19. Pederson led the ICE with six shots while Conor Geekie and Matthew Savoie each had five.

After a week of inclement weather, Manitoba residents can finally breathe a sigh of relief as all weather statements and warnings have been lifted. 

However, while the snow may be coming to an end this weekend, a return to bone-chilling temperatures is on the way.

The special weather statement for southern Manitoba has been lifted as the Colorado low finally pushes east, also bringing an end to the blowing snow advisories.

A winter storm continues to plague the region, with several highways closed due to poor driving conditions. 

Manitoba Infrastructure sent out a notice that the following highways are closed as of 2:18 p.m.:

Tragedy struck the late last night when a collision between a front-end loader and a cyclist resulted in the death of the adult male cyclist.

The incident occurred around 10:20 p.m. on December 15, 2022, in the area of Mission Street and Plinguet Street in Winnipeg.

The Winnipeg Police Service says in a release that two off-duty Winnipeg Police Service members were nearby and immediately began to provide emergency medical care to the injured cyclist.

We're waking up Friday morning to another day of impacts from that Colorado low that continues to linger in our region.

A 45 year old Winnipeg man is facing a number of charges after the stolen vehicle he was driving hit the ditch in the R.M. of Stanley.

Morden RCMP responded to the call around 7 a.m. Tuesday morning on Road 36 West, just north of Highway 3.

A 17-year-old female from Roseau River First Nation and a 38-year-old Winkler female are facing multiple charges after a violent incident late Monday night. 

Officers were called to a residence in the 100 block of 3rd Street South in Winkler after receiving a stabbing report, which led to them finding an injured 66-year-old male inside his home. 

As Special Weather Statements continue across the southern half of the province, round two of snowfall will begin this morning from a Colorado low which continues to impact the region. After 5 to 10 cm yesterday, an additional 10 to 15cms is possible Thursday through Friday morning. This time though, it will come with gusty winds which will cause blowing snow. With highways less than ideal already, the Portage School Division has decided not to run any buses today while the Pine Creek division will close all schools. All this, after a relatively calm night last night.
