You may want to pack a sweater. Although there are no major storms bearing down on the province over the long weekend, it appears that Saskatchewanians are in for a rather cool May Long Weekend.

Wildfires and fire bans in northern Saskatchewan — along with smoke from those fires — could put a damper on the May long weekend. 

According to the Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency (SPSA), there are currently 11 wildfires burning. Five are not under control and one remains under investigation. That number is down from 24 wildfires a week ago, though three new fires were reported overnight as of Thursday morning.

Peacock Collegiate.
