Another day and another special weather statement for the Humboldt region.

Environment Canada says a seasonably mild and stagnant air mass over Saskatchewan has resulted in widespread fog as well as patchy freezing drizzle.

Emergency Preparedness Meteorologist John-Paul Cragg explains in more detail Monday morning.

"Very light water droplets freezing on contact so a little bit of coat of freezing drizzle on the windshield when you get up to drive to work so a little bit of scraping. That freezing drizzle will also be on the roads and that will help keep things pretty slick."

Conditions are expected to improve through out the day on the west side of Saskatchewan but here in the Humboldt area the statement could be in place until at least Monday evening.

"A very weak disturbance passing over the province," Cragg described as the culprit. "It's making the lower layer of the atmosphere, the 'boundary layer' as we call it really quite moist and that moisture is coming out in the form of freezing drizzle and fog."

Once it does clear up the temperature is expected to drop, they won't get to the coldest point of the year so far but they will take a tumble before slowly warming again next week.

"Even though we're forecasting that dip in temperatures by Friday, temperatures seem to be on the rise again next week," Cragg added.

He says they won't get to the near zero mark like they have but the daytime highs will still be above average for this time of year.
