More SNOW in Hamilton. It's pretty and we love it, but this morning we will remind you to be careful on the roads and sidewalks. It's a tad slippery, so be careful on roads and sidewalks.
Take some extra time to clean off the car. It seems whether you are downtown, or in Mope Hope or Ancaster, you'll need both an ice scraper and a snow brush this morning. Be aware of other commuters around you whether they be on foot, two wheels or in another vehicle.
If you are flying to the U.S. or to the east coast this morning, be sure you check your flight status. The storm that brought Hamilton a little bit of snow is a lot heavier in other parts of the country and wasn't so nice to our neighbours to the south. There might be delays at your destination as a result.
Still a few slow spots this morning at 8:30 a.m. On the highways, the 403 Toronto-bound is very slow from Wilson Street in Ancaster to the LINC. The LINC heading onto the 403 is also moving slowly.
The QEW over the Skyway bridge, Toronto-bound, is moving slowly as well, but that clears up once you merge onto the 403.
In town, Upper James is slow both ways from the LINC to Fennel Avenue. Mohawk Road from the LINC to Upper Wellington is also moving slowly.
King Street East is slow from Victoria all the way to the 403.
The Queen Street Hill is moving slowly into the lower city, and Aberdeen is backed up. The West 5th access and the Jolley Cut down to John Street into the lower city are both slow.
Barton Street is moving slowly from James to Victoria, as is Main Street from the 403 to Victoria and again from Gage to Parkdale.
A fire on Ray Street North near York Blvd. will also slow you down in that area this morning. Fire crews responded at around 5:30 a.m. and are still on scene. Ray Street North from Barton to York is closed.
A note for drivers in Ancaster. Hamilton Police will close Jerseyville Road West between Shaver and Paddy Greene roads for two hours starting at 10 a.m. for an investigation related to a fatal accident that happened last year.
Here's a map of the ongoing construction projects around the city you might run into this morning.

If you haven't heard, we got some snow! It's -1 C for your walk to work this morning, but feels more like -6 C. It's not too chilly out, but make sure you're warm when you step out the door.
We're expecting a high of -2 C later today and a chance we'll see some more flurries in the early evening. A low of -7 C overnight. That means some of the wet snow will freeze during the night, so expect to scrape the car off again tomorrow morning.
The hometown boys make it back to Hamilton from Regina after the Grey Cup game on Sunday. Reporter John Rieti reported some sad faces on the Tiger-Cats, but coach Kent Austin was in good spirits. He was praising the team for a good season. His message to you: "Stay with us."
HSR is pledging to become a friendlier workplace for women, the union said. In September, an adjudicator found in favour of a long-time female HSR employee who was harassed for years by a male supervisor. The city said it has implemented most of the adjudicator's recommendations in a report following that verdict.
For all your world news, give the CBC AM Express a listen. World Report host David Common takes you through the morning's top headlines.
Winter most definitely is here! Thanks to real estate agent Doug Folsetter (@dougfolsetter) for this shot.
Maybe not a great idea to give these stunts a try in this weather. Some very amazing wheelchair freestylin'. Take a look.
