The storm brought two waves of snow — one that began early Saturday then ended, making many people think the storm forecast had been wrong.

Then the second wave hit, bringing the heaviest snow Saturday night and continued through Sunday.

Winnipeg received 21 cm through the first 24 hours, which was the city’s greatest one-day snowfall since Dec. 30-31, 2006, when 32 cm fell.

The city typically receives 21.4 cm for the entire month.

A residential parking ban has been put into place for Winnipeg, beginning Monday at 7 p.m.
