CARLYLE - Yet another Colorado Low is set to impact the southeast corner of the province Friday and into the weekend.

Environment Canada issued a special weather statement for the Carlyle area just after 2 p.m. Wednesday.

It says a third major low pressure system in as many weeks will impact parts of the southeast and southern Manitoba, bringing additional precipitation to areas already experiencing highly saturated ground and overland flooding.

Uncertainties with this system remain higher than the previous two; there is a chance the system remains entirely in the United States. However, the largest likelihood is that areas near the international border will receive the largest amount of precipitation.

Current guidance suggests some areas may receive an additional 20-50 millimetres of precipitation, most of which will likely fall as rain, although some snow is possible over the higher terrain of southwestern Manitoba.

SASKTODAY.ca will have more details as they become available.
