Cold front brings in wind and rain before the heat pumps back in.

Saskatoon Forecast

Tuesday

-5 is what it felt like with wind chill to start the day in Saskatoon as temperatures slipped a degree below freezing under partly cloudy skies.

A warm and breezy southwesterly wind kicked in with gusts upwards of 45 km/h during the morning, which helped boost us up into the mid-teens before noon with bone dry conditions and a rising fire danger risk.

Mostly sunny skies lingered through the afternoon as we continued to warm up into the 20s for the first time this year.

Wednesday

A cold front will bring in clouds in the morning Wednesday with a chance of midday rain as it splices through the province before clouds clear out later in the day.

Winds will also pick up along the front with gusts upwards of 40 to 50 km/h as we struggle to make it up to an afternoon high in the mid-teens.
