Saskatoon weather: Commuters still adjusting to winter [Video]

Commuters faced another day of delays and dangerous conditions in and around Saskatoon on Wednesday, as city crews continue clearing priority streets.

In a news release Wednesday morning, the City of Saskatoon says there are 27 graders, 13 snowplows and 15 sanders working to improve conditions after the 17 centimetre snowfall, but many roadways remain obstructed or slippery.

Traffic groups on social media have reported collisions or crashes involving semis at Nault Road, Kensington Court and Chapel Road, and the Saskatchewan Highway Hotline is reporting a number of highways out of Saskatoon are still covered in snow.

Around 6 a.m., the hotline described Highway 16 heading west out of the city as covered in loose, drifting and swirling snow, with patches of ice. Highways 7, 60, and 14 were in similar condition Wednesday morning, according to the highway hotline.
