Old Man Winter rears ugly head to start November
Snow hit the Battlefords and surrounding area Monday morning, leaving roads slick and visibility low for morning commutes.
A weather system tracking through central Saskatchewan brought rain, cold air and snow.
While the Battlefords received its share of snow, Meadow Lake was under a snowfall warning because of its position on the wrong side of a low-pressure system, according to Environment Canada’s Terri Lang.
“That’s when you get most of the snow,” she said. “This low-pressure system is tracking right over Lloydminster, over North Battleford and Highway 16. This area more to the north, they usually get most of the snow. Areas to the south, not so much.”
