It’s not a great day to be traveling on some highways in Saskatchewan.
A low pressure system from Alberta brought a mix of rain, freezing rain and snow to the north central part of the province overnight.
Highway conditions are especially bad around the Battlefords where travel is not recommended on any highways in and out of those communities.
