It's another balmy spring day in Hamilton – at 7 a.m. it was –10 C, but felt more like –15 C with the wind chill. These frigid mornings aren't getting any easier, are they?
Oh, and how could we have forgotten — Happy New Year! March 25 is actually Old New Year's Day, which is still celebrated by people in Russia, Switzerland, Macedonia, Georgia, Belarus, and Serbia. Many of those places ignored the Gregorian calendar for hundreds of years after it was created in 1582 – choosing instead to recognize the Feast of the Annunciation as New Year's Day.
GO Transit isn't reporting any service delays on lines going to and from Hamilton this morning.
Lane restrictions are in effect on Charlton Avenue East, which the city says are needed for preventative maintenance on the underside of the Claremont Access.
The lane restrictions will be in effect between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. "Traffic flow will be maintained but there will be delays," the city says.
Here are the problems police are reporting this morning:
- A vehicle collision on Barton Street East. 8:32 a.m.
- A vehicle collision on Highway 52 in Ancaster. 8:27 a.m.
- Traffic at Burlington Street East and Victoria Avenue North. 8:19 a.m.
- A vehicle collision at Highway 5 and Hamilton Street North in Flamborough. 7:26 a.m.
Expect increasing cloudiness and a few flurries beginning late this morning.
The wind will become southwest at 30 km/h gusting to 50 this afternoon.
Thankfully, the temperature is set to crawl past freezing at 1 C.
That won't last long though – the forecast is calling for lows of –12 C overnight, with a few flurries, too.

The public still has a chance to reverse the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board's plans to close 11 elementary schools in the area, says its chair.
There are four delegation nights coming in April and May, and trustees promise to hear people out, said Jessica Brennan, chair of the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board. Schools currently slated for closure could be saved and schools currently safe could be closed. Both have happened in the last two years based on public feedback.
And today at city hall, councillors will no doubt discuss the "cautionary letter" they received last week that the Pan Am soccer stadium's construction might not be finished by its June 30 deadline. Reporter Samantha Craggs will be reporting from the meeting. You can follow along with her on Twitter.
If clowns scare you, look away now.
No, seriously.
We warned you.
For those of you who are still with us: someone in New York City's Staten Island borough is roaming the streets at night in this terrifying clown costume and scaring the bejesus out of people. How terrifying? Well:
This guy is popping up all over Instagram. He's been spotted hanging out in front of that detour and lurking behind trees in New York.
Seriously though, imagine walking home alone and coming across Pennywise the clown's second cousin over here:
