Snowstorm Hits The Pas With 95 Inches This Winter
The Pas weather office reports 18 inches of snow fell during the 30 hour storm that began Thursday morning March 30 and ended Friday afternoon. Winds reached 62 MPH north of northeast. Total winter snow rises to 95 inches. Dozens of travellers were stranded between Flin Flon Thompson and Dauphin, sheltering at The Pas. Hotels near full, with ceilings of 66 room Cambrian and 45 room Gateway, as TransAir passengers waited out the weather. EMO coordinated by Rick Johnson handled calls with a stretcher case arriving on the north train. Most were able to continue by Saturday morning as crews cleared routes to Swan River and Thompson.
