Morning’s snow and freezing rain may cause slippery street and sidewalk conditions for commute
January 26, 2023 - 6:30am
Saskatoon experienced a combination of snow and freezing rain overnight and it continues this morning. Although rain is expected to end later this morning, combined with existing snow it may cause slippery conditions on Saskatoon streets. Drivers and pedestrians are urged to use caution and morning commuters may want to leave early.
City snow crews, including 13 sanders, were out spreading de-icing materials overnight and another 14 sanders will continue this morning focusing on high traffic streets, intersections and bridge decks.
Drivers should be aware of changing weather that can affect road and sidewalk conditions and adjust their driving for the conditions. Leave extra room and watch for blue and yellow flashing lights on road equipment.
