The Water Security Agency is warning residents about thin ice conditions in the province.  

Spring runoff will start to materialize with warmer temperatures, and the WSA is cautioning everyone to be safe around Saskatchewan rivers, lakes and other bodies of water.  

Ice does not melt at a uniform pace and its strength can vary from one area to the next.  

Home cooking has been the recipe for success in the series between the Humboldt Broncos and Flin Flon Bombers.  

Through the first four games, the home squad has won each contest as the Broncos will try and break that trend on Saturday night at the Whitney Forum.  

After their second straight overtime win on Wednesday night, Associate Coach Carter Hansen said the pressure falls back to the Bombers. 

It's going to be a difficult trek with travelling throughout the rest of the day and into the weekend. 

 Snowfall began yesterday and has carried over into today, creating slippery conditions on the roads along with reduced visibility.  

Environment Canada’s Stephen Berg says the snowfall will ease later tonight. 

The U13 ‘A’ Humboldt Broncos will try and finish the season off on the best possible note as they travel to Moosomin on Saturday to meet the Rangers.  

Last weekend, Humboldt opened the final series with a 5-3 win.  

Opening faceoff for tomorrow’s game is 2:30. If Moosomin beats Humboldt, then the two teams will battle in a ten minute “mini game” immediately following Game 2.  

The last weekend of March will serve as the final days for the local senior hockey leagues.  

Fresh off winning the Senior ‘C’ Provincials last weekend in Wilkie, the Foam Lake Flyers will resume the Long Lake Hockey League Championship finals tonight against the Drake Canucks.

With warm weather hopefully around the corner, many outdoor activities will soon commence. It will also mark the beginning of digging season. 

The Saskatchewan Common Ground Alliance (SCGA) will be hosting free breakfasts for construction workers and those involved in digging projects within the community to help raise awareness about the potential dangers that exist when digging into underground utilities.  

*Update* 

Some roads in the area this morning are closed with most reporting travel not recommended.
