Extreme Cold Warning

 Winter in Saskatchewan


So far the winter in Saskatchewan has actually been very mild. We have been blessed with warm temps but now this week we got hit with a reality check. These temps and extreme cold warnings are normal for January. So it wasn't really a surprise. 

I am happy to see that warmer temps are on the way and this cold snap really won't last that long. It did warm up today from -34 at breakfast to -17 at lunch so I was able to go out for a 5km ski on the lake. It was nice to get out of the house for a bit. It was also a beautiful day with blue sky and sun!  Often that is how these -30 days appear. With blue sky and sun. It is the wind chill that causes the problem. I spent an hour outside and my toes were pretty cold by the time I got back into the house.
