2018 kicked off cold, but there is some relief on the way!
Saskatoon Forecast
Tuesday
After a frigid finish to 2017 and start to 2018 with -40 wind chills ringing in the new year, we’ve warmed up in leaps and bounds for the second day of January!
A breezy southwesterly wind helped warm temperatures out of the -20s and into the minus teens to start the day before pushing up further into minus single digits under partly to mostly cloudy skies.
It felt like the -20s with wind chill in the morning; even those values improved, bounding into the mid-minus teens before noon as a mix of sun and cloud dominated the afternoon and we slid back into minus double digits.
Wednesday
-25 is around what it’ll feel like to start the third day of the new year Wednesday morning.
It’ll be a bit of a gloomier day in the clouds with a chance of flurries, particularly in the middle of the day, as we rise up to an afternoon high around -10.
Thursday-Friday
Slightly warmer air slides in for the rest of the week as a frontal boundary over the area starts to slide east, allowing us to tap into minus single digits daytime highs.
Clouds will be in and out for the remainder of the first week of 2018 with a bit more sunshine possible Friday.
Weekend Outlook
The first weekend of the new year is shaping up to be cloudy with a good chance of snow late Saturday into Sunday as daytime highs push into minus single digits both days.
