Warnings
- R.M. of Hazelwood south of Kipling
A multi-day episode of very cold wind chills is expected. A multi-day extreme cold event continues for southern Saskatchewan. Overnight low temperatures near minus 30 with winds up to 15 km/h will produce extremely cold wind chill values nearing minus 45 this morning. Wind chills will moderate slightly during the day, but will return to extreme values Monday night to southeastern portions of the province. Extreme cold puts everyone at risk. Risks are greater for young children, older adults, people with chronic illnesses, people working or exercising outdoors, and those without proper shelter. Dress warmly. Dress in layers that you can remove if you get too warm. The outer layer should be wind resistant. Cover up. Frostbite can develop within minutes on exposed skin, especially with wind chill. If it’s too cold for you to stay outside, it’s too cold for your pet to stay outside. Extreme cold warnings are issued when very cold temperatures or wind chill creates an elevated risk to health such as frost bite and hypothermia. Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to SKstorm@ec.gc.ca or tweet reports using #SKStorm.
