Some roads not updated since 9 this morning

All fine when we came down this morning. We are in Minot now.

"Driving from Brandon to Minnedosa and it's so slushy and not the best visibility. The slush Keeps pulling the vehicles into the other lane or the shoulder. Glad to be almost home.  
Also very slippery!!! 10 mins ago"  
 
"I live south of Brandon. From approx. a few miles south of Clementy Hill lots of slush which drags you towards ditch. Cud only do 60km with small car. Saw one track that led to the ditch.

Awhile ago drove brandon to boissevain and south of the two they were awful. Car in front of us spun around and ended up facing the other way. Everyone travelling slow. Was very. Slippery. Don't drive on it if you don't have to!

Added a few shots taken about 15 min ago just South of the city. Not good. Be smart and safe folks.... Learned my lesson a number of years ago driving on slushy highways. You can lose control and be in the ditch in the blink of an eye.

The slush on the road will pull you into the ditch.

So much slush on the roads, almost got pulled off the side a couple times. Stay home if you can.

My wife heard that number 2 east of souris was terrible before six when she came home, and I know that number 2 west of town is not good right now, some vehicles are having a hard time staying in the proper lane even while travelling at reduced speeds. If you don't have to be on the roads it might be best no to be.
