Sask. residents weigh in on sudden blast of wintry weather [Video]

It’s no surprise in Saskatchewan that sometimes winter can extend right into spring —and that was the reality for many across the province when they woke up Wednesday morning.

Most are taking this last shot of winter in stride, while farmers welcome the moisture.

Those CTV News spoke to didn’t mind the abrupt return to winter, like Saskatoon resident Vicky Xil.

“I think it’s nice to have a little bit of snow, because we had a warm winter this year so snow I feel like it’s good,” she said.

Her small daughter, however, didn’t feel quite as certain.

“I like it a little bit, but it’s pretty cold,” she said.

Tobin Kirkness was out in shorts Wednesday afternoon in downtown Saskatoon and forgot his jacket at home, which he regretted, but he wasn’t too concerned about the snow.

“It will be gone in three days,” he said.
