Smoky conditions and rain expected in many areas this weekend
Smoke and showers are the two big stories for much of Saskatchewan as the weekend approaches.
Crawford Luke of Environment and Climate Change Canada told northeastNOW that areas including the northeast can expect the smoke from wildfires to increase as Friday progresses.
“Definitely looks like it’s going to get worse by this afternoon, unfortunately,” Luke said.
Air quality warnings are currently in place in areas of the northeast, including Melfort, along with Prince Albert and La Ronge.
