In the fields already? Snowmobiling?
Depends on soil temp, moisture and cultivar. Usually first or second week of May but I doubt I'll be seeding the first week.
Global warming isn't cooperating and we are breaking cold records left, right and center.
Record Breaking Cold
Earth’s coldest temperature anomalies were recorded in Saskatchewan for the first week of April with the mercury dipping 10 to 20 degrees below normal across the province.
Friday, April 6, 2018 was the coldest in recorded history in Saskatoon with the mercury plunging back to -24.4 degrees, breaking our previous record of -20.0 from 1920.
It felt like -34 with wind chill in the city to start the day, but -39 is what it felt like in Rosetown – which was the coldest place in the province as thermometers fell back to -29 to start the day.
Most other sites in Saskatchewan shattered records as well Friday morning with more at stake to start the day on Saturday with temperatures expected to dive back into the -20s to break our previous record of -20.0 degrees from 1954.
