Saskatchewan is on to day 2 of an extreme deep freeze, and already the temperature is colder Tuesday than it was on Monday.
As of 6:30 a.m., Environment Canada had issued extreme cold warnings for every region of the province south of Meadow Lake and Prince Albert, all the way to the U.S. border. Regions in the province’s far north, like Stony Rapids, Collins Bay and Uranium City were also under the extreme cold warning.
As part of the advisory, the weather agency said, “a multi-day episode of very cold wind chills is expected. A cold, arctic air mass is entrenched over southern Saskatchewan.
“Extreme cold wind chill values of -40 to -45 C are being reported in almost all of southern Saskatchewan again this morning.”
Environment Canada expects the arctic air mass to linger over the prairies “for a few more days.”
Regina was sitting at -29 C, with a wind chill value of -41 on Tuesday morning. Saskatoon was at -31, giving a wind chill value of -44.
Prince Albert was the warmest community in the province, sitting at -26 C, with a wind chill of -37.
The weather agency warned that people going or commuting outside should watch for cold-related symptoms, like shortness of breath, chest pain, muscle pain and weakness, numbness and colour change in fingers and toes.
It advised dressing warmly, in layers, with the outer layer being wind resistant.
