-19 is what it felt like Friday morning with wind chill in Saskatoon as temperatures dipped back into the minus teens under mostly cloudy skies.

Overcast conditions kicked into full swing into the middle of the day as we warmed all the way up toward the freezing mark by noon as a breezy south-southeasterly wind picked up.

Clouds will continue to filter in during the afternoon as we warm up to a daytime high a degree or so above freezing.
