People across Saskatchewan are enjoying a run of warm weather as spring approaches, but balmy temperatures could cause big problems for homeowners. Snow melting near foundations could mean soggy basements as water creeps through cracks and holes, especially in older homes. As a result, homeowners are advised to shovel snow away from their foundations, especially around problem areas like windows. "But, yeah, there's a hard way to find out what can happen if you don't stay on top of it." Meanwhile, city crews across the province are busy monitoring frozen catch basins on streets, especially around problem areas.
