January will start with cold temperatures - and probably snow

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 31 Desember 2014 | 22.46

Hamilton's New Year's Eve cold snap will continue this week, and bring some snow with it. But by the weekend, temperatures will be above zero again.

The high on Wednesday is forecast to be -8 C, enough to prompt the city's Medical Officer of Health to issue a cold weather alert.

There's a chance of flurries Wednesday, with chilly winds gusting to up to 60 kilometres per hour early this afternoon. Overnight, winds will continue to gust to 60 kilometres per hour, and the low will be -10 C.

But by Saturday, Environment Canada predicts, the high will be 1 C, and on Sunday, it'll be up to 6 C.

These temperatures are about average for Dec. 31. The average high for this day is -1.3 C. The average low is -8.5 C.

Dec. 31 was a tumultuous time for weather in the 1960s. In 1965, the temperature was 14.4 C. In 1962, it was -25.6 C. Those are both Environment Canada records.

It also saw a record amount of snow fall in 1969 — 12.7 cm. The record for most snow on the ground on Dec. 31 happened in 2000, when there were 50 centimetres.

Here's the full forecast for the first week of 2015:

  • Wednesday: Sun and cloud with a 30 per cent chance of flurries. Winds gusting west to 40 kilometres per hour, becoming southwest and gusting to 60 early this afternoon. High: - 8 C.
  • Overnight: Partly cloudy with winds gusting southwest to 60. Low -10 C.

  • Saturday: Cloudy with a 60 per cent chance of snow or rain. Low – 5 C. High 1 C.
