Warmer weather returns this weekend

The “warm” weather is back in Yellowknife later this week.

It’s been a see-saw Spring for the people of the North, something residents must be used to by now. That said, the temperature in Yellowknife is expected to rise above zero by Friday afternoon, even reaching a possible 4°C on Saturday.

We’ve had a few warm spurts since the beginning of March this year; however, this is likely the inevitable gateway to Spring-weather.

With the eventual warm weather, it’s a good idea to remind readers that, with warm weather, comes the higher chance of hydroplaning.

Drive safe, drive smart, and enjoy the warmer weather!
