Los fuertes vientos y la gota fría provocaron numerosos cortes de energía en el sur de Manitoba el jueves.
Hubo informes de varios cierres de autopistas en la mañana, junto con aproximadamente 3.000 cortes de energía para el jueves por la mañana. Por la noche, Manitoba Hydro tuiteó que estaban "terminando" de restaurar la energía al último de sus clientes afectados.
A medida que la tormenta se dirige hacia el este, la nieve pesada continuará detrás de ella en partes del norte de Manitoba, mientras tanto, la lluvia helada y el riesgo de granizo permanecen en el norte de Ontario.
A continuación se presentan algunos aspectos destacados de #MBStorm, tal como se comparten en los medios sociales.

The #winterstorm has mostly passed here in southern Manitoba. Great neighbor plowing driveways. @MisheylaIwasiuk veggie garden will have to wait. Got some work done on my Animal Crossing "MyRadar" spelled-out flower garden this evening too. #mbstorm @MyRadarWX pic.twitter.com/48KIseAqgO

When ice and snow build up on power lines, the lines gallop and cause outages. In order to safely remove ice we'll have to take controlled outages today — we'll do our best to give you advance warning. #mbstorm pic.twitter.com/yqkPE9wioc

Snow is accumulating, on top of a layer of ice, caused by freezing drizzle overnight. Roads, especially residential streets, are very icy!! #mbstorm , #Winnipeg pic.twitter.com/aDe8k7yinY

Deep wet heavy McFlurry like #snow last night was no match for the Subaru on the prairie trail in southwest Manitoba. Looks like the storm is retrograding back to the west slightly and we may get some more snow here in Boissevain area. #mbstorm Watching radar on @MyRadarWX app pic.twitter.com/67wQAfabiJ
