SPRING STORM

Spring storm wreaks havoc across southern Alberta

Apr 29, 2019 | 6:33 AM

Blizzard conditions brought traffic to a standstill on highways in southern Alberta and Saskatchewan over the weekend.

Snow-covered sections of the Trans-Canada on either side of Calgary reopened yesterday as stuck or smashed vehicles were removed, but the problem only moved east as the storm tracked into southwestern Saskatchewan.

One crash west of Calgary involved four semis and 11 other vehicles, but police said there were no serious injuries.

Calgary International Airport reported 49 cancellations of arriving or departing flights on Saturday, and five flights that were diverted.
