As things become clearer regarding the impending Colorado low set to impact Southern Manitoba Tuesday night through much of the remainder of the week, Environment Canada has issued a Special Weather Statement for the entire region.

In Manitoba, it's pretty much always a white Christmas - it just depends on how white. For those dreaming of a little more of the white stuff after several days of near-melting temperatures, your wishes are likely to come true.

Although environment Canada hasn't issued any watches or warnings yet, that may change over the next 24 hours.

Two young adults are facing a list of serious charges after an incident Friday evening that saw a suspect pull a gun on officers, and one officer injured in the struggle.

Drivers are reporting very poor visibility due to thick fog throughout much of southern Manitoba Sunday morning, and Environment Canada has issued a fog advisory.

Visibility reportedly improves the further east you travel, with the Winnipeg region having good visibility for the most part.

From Environment Canada

Dense fog patches with near-zero visibility will continue into Sunday morning.

For those dreaming of a white Christmas, after several days of near melting temperatures, your wishes are likely to come true.

Everyone is safe after a house fire Sunday in Niakwa Place.

The Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service responded to reports of a fire in a single-storey home in the 100 block of Fallbrook Bay just before 5 p.m.

The City of Winniepg says in a release that when firefighters arrived they saw flames and smoke coming from the home.

Firefighters were able to enter the home and attacked the fire from inside the structure.

They were able to get the fire under control by 5:20 p.m.

Everyone got out of the building safely and no injuries were reported.

Much of northern Manitoba remains under an extreme cold warning Monday as arctic air continues to push through the region.

Places like Tadoule Lake have been under an extreme cold warning for a week now. Wind chill values of -45 to -50 are being experienced throughout the regions under the warning.

Conor Geekie's second goal of the game with 2:27 remaining in regulation time proved to be the deciding marker Saturday night as the Winnipeg ICE beat the Prince Albert Raiders 6-4.

Matthew Savoie also scored twice while Zach Benson and Ben Zloty rounded out the attack. Benson's goal was the 50th of his WHL career. Ty Nash chipped in with three assists.

The ICE outshot the Raiders 31-25. Goaltender Mason Beaupit earned the victory while Max Hildebrand suffered the loss.

Brayden Dube, Sloan Stanick, Carson Latimer and Ryder Ritchie had the Prince Albert goals.
