Saskatoon weather: Snowy and windy, but still warming up

A high of -10 with fresh snow today sounds inviting after the cold stretch that took up so much of January.

It’s -15 C at Saskatoon Diefenbaker International Airport this morning, with 19 km winds coming out of the northeast and a wind chill making it feel like -24.

With or without kids in tow, there’s plenty of winter fun to be had on a snowy day like today. Don’t let those high winds stop you — just make sure you bundle up enough to keep warm while you’re enjoying those outdoor activities.
