To discover one of the reasons why Saskatoon had such a cold Easter weekend, we take you overseas to sunny, 28-degree Taiwan to meet our latest crew of SkyTrackers.
The Grade 6 class at Morrison Academy in Kaohsiung have spent weeks learning how to forecast weather, and their teacher, Mr. Tam, invited Global Saskatoon meteorologist Peter Quinlan to answer some of the class’s burning weather questions via Google Hangouts.
The group learned how a typhoon in Asia pushing warm air to the north was one reason why cold air was sliding south into Saskatchewan and parts of central Canada over the Easter weekend.
