Sask. gets reprieve from bitter cold

Following a weekend where many people saw temperatures in the -30s C, Saskatchewan has taken a turn to the mild side.

Regina is expected to hit -2 later today while Saskatoon is expected to see -1.

It's not exactly picnic weather, with some drifting snow in Saskatoon and early morning temperatures in the east in the -20s.

Still, a number of communities will head into positive temperatures today. It expected to drop to -20 later this week, but there are no -30s in sight.
