As the city returns to normal after the heavy snowfall in December, Saskatoon residents are noticing more foggy and frosty mornings than usual.

A meteorologist with Canada’s weather service says he’s noticed it, too.

“We’ve been constantly, from the office here, issuing fog advisories for the province of Saskatchewan,” Eric Dykes, a meteorologist with Environment Canada, told CTV News.

“It’s been an enormously foggy start to 2023.”

The fog is caused by a number of factors, according to Dykes.

First, excess moisture is needed — the 34 centimetres of snow that fell in Saskatoon would suffice.
