Regina City Hall talked weather all week. What's up with that?

You won't believe what they talked about at City Hall this week, eh?

This is Regina — yeah, we know what it sounds like, and we've heard your joke. Now sit down and listen.

*Tânisi* Regina. Darlene Chicken-Lawson here, giving you the rundown of what we’ve been chatting about this week from City Hall. It's been one of those weeks where you'd think they were running a weather station instead of the city, eh? The skies just really had everyone's attention.

### When the Sky Becomes the Agenda

Seems like everyone at City Hall had their eyes glued to the windows this week. We heard a lot about the *kisâwâtisiwin* — the weather, eh?

* Discussions around storm drainage updates were pretty big, especially after all that rain we've had near Wascana Lake. * There was talk about city services preparing for potential heavy summer storms, kinda like when the water mains burst last winter. * And, oh for sure, the shade trees in Cathedral were mentioned, how important they are when it gets real hot.

It just goes to show, sometimes the biggest news isn't tucked away in a report, it's right there above our heads, influencing everything down here. Makes you wonder if they're gonna start forecasting next, eh?

*Kinanâskomitin*, and keep it locked on MiTL.

Tune in to mornings.live for more local stories, *tânisi*!
