Thursday's got range—pick your night, watch the roads.

Morning's crisp and dry—13°C with mostly cloudy skies and decent light until 6:22 PM, so you've got a full workday ahead. UV's sitting at 3.0, nothing to sweat. Air quality's fine.

If you're driving, know that the Louis-H.-La Fontaine tunnel's still under réfection, and there's work happening on the Saint-Urbain overpass, so give yourself extra time if those are your routes. Nothing's closed outright today, but flow's tighter than usual. The real travel chaos hits tomorrow—the Marathon Beneva's shutting down streets Friday through Sunday with 35,000 runners, so plan around that if you've got movement to do.

A couple of things worth knowing: Boucherie Viau's recalled smoked ham over possible Listeria contamination, so check your fridge if you've grabbed from them recently. And if you picked up sushi from Sakana-Ya, they're recalling products over undeclared mustard—worth a quick look at what you've got at home.

On the food front, restaurants across Canada have been hiking prices all year, and half are planning to do it again next year, so don't be shocked if your usual spot costs a bit more. If you're looking to eat out tonight, Il Teatro just opened in the Quartier des Spectacles with proper Roman pasta and Italian wine—worth a look if you want something new.

Tonight's packed. The Habs play Nashville at Centre Bell at 7:00 PM if you want to catch some hockey. If you're more of a live-music person, there's indie rock and an afterparty at Fairmount Theatre at 7 (VIVE LE PUNK screening with Casino Steel and Matt Dangerfiel), Engelbert Humperdinck at Place des Arts at 7:30, John Cleese doing comedy at L'Olympia at 7:30, or Thunder From Down Under at the Cabaret du Casino at the same time. So you've got your pick—sports, punk, standards, stand-up, or whatever that last one is. Everything's indoors, which works fine with this weather.

Stay warm out there. See you tonight.
