Frost Advisory in Effect Across Saskatchewan
A frost advisory is now in place for large parts of southern and central Saskatchewan, including Regina and Saskatoon. Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) says patchy frost will likely develop Friday night and linger into Saturday morning.
What Residents Should Know
The advisory urges residents to act quickly to protect gardens and trees. Covering plants, especially those vulnerable to sudden cold, can prevent frost damage. While patchy, the frost could still affect sensitive crops and backyard gardens if left unprotected.
Areas Under Alert
The full southern half of Saskatchewan, along with much of the west-central region, is under the frost advisory. The warning was issued Friday at 3:45 p.m. and will remain in effect through the overnight hours.
Official Guidance
ECCC advises residents to monitor the latest alerts and weather updates on its official website. Taking early steps, such as moving potted plants indoors or using frost covers, can minimize potential damage.
Why It Matters
Early frosts often catch communities off guard, especially when warmer days precede sudden cold snaps. Farmers, gardeners, and homeowners are encouraged to remain alert during transitional weather.
