Snow for St. Patrick’s Day? Here’s what you need to know.
Saskatoon Forecast
Friday
Saskatoon’s mildest morning so far this year occurred Friday as the mercury only dipped back to -7, this with wind chills down to 15.
Cloudy skies are what helped bring in the warm start to the day with temperatures rising up to -2 degrees by noon.
Clouds hang out over the area for the rest of the day as we continue to climb up to an afternoon high around or just above the freezing mark.
Friday Night
Clouds stick around through Friday evening as we cool back toward, but not quite into minus double digits.
St. Patrick’s Day Saturday
St. Patrick’s Day will be filled with clouds and start off warm yet again, with wind chills only dipping back into the mid-minus teens to start the day.
It’ll be a nice St. Paddy’s Day for heading out to enjoy outdoor activities as the mercury makes its way up toward the freezing mark for an afternoon high, but there is a good chance of a few centimetres of snow midday and into the afternoon.
Sunday
We could catch a few more waves of light snow on Sunday as an upper low continues to circulate southwest of the region, particularly later in the day into early Monday with total amounts potentially pushing into the five to 10 centimetre range.
Despite the clouds, we should once again manage to climb up to an afternoon high just a few degrees shy of the freezing mark to round off the weekend.
Work Week Outlook
Some snow could linger into Monday before skies start to clear, bringing us back into some sunshine by mid-week as we continue to make it up to afternoon highs just shy of the freezing mark.
