Saskatchewan residents were working hard Thursday morning and afternoon to clear driveways and sidewalks after the big snowfall. Some people told Global News they don’t mind working in the cold while others were not happy with the weather.
Saskatchewan RCMP received dozens of reports of collisions from Wednesday night to Thursday morning, as well as 25 other weather-related incidents.
Residents that spoke with Global News said they have not been out driving much since the blizzard, but people that have been on the roads say they are not too bad when driving cautiously.
While people are still cleaning up from Wednesday’s storm, another system is expected to bring more snow on Friday.
