This is Saskatoon’s coldest February stretch in 80 years

The last time Saskatoon has had a similarly long February cold snap was 80 years ago.

So far this month, the city has had 10 days where temperatures have not exceeded -20 C, according to Environment Canada.

In 1939, there were 13 days where temperatures plummeted into the -20 C range.

Environment Canada said temperatures will moderate in the next few days, but will not approach seasonal averages.
