RED DEER- A strong low pressure system brought heavy snow and strong winds to much of central and southern Alberta Saturday into Sunday morning.

The system also produced a few short lived severe thunderstorms in the southeast corner of the province on Saturday afternoon, before blizzard conditions descended on the area Saturday evening and overnight.
