Tuesday's colder turn, some road work to sidestep, live music tonight.
It's a crisp one this morning—layer up and watch for a few commute hiccups on the 401.
Temperature's dropped to 8°C this morning, so grab a jacket before you head out. The UV is running high at 6.0, so if you're out midday, sunscreen still matters even with the chill. Sun's down by 7:15 PM, so plan your evening accordingly.
On the commute front, there's a disabled vehicle blocking the left lane on the 401 Eastbound Express at Yonge, and another one tying up the right lane on the 401 ramp at Dixon and Martin Grove. Both are going to slow things down if that's your route—give yourself extra time or find an alternate. The 403 in Burlington's got multiple transport trucks involved in a crash too, so avoid that corridor if you can. If you're catching the 512 St Clair, detour via Lansdowne, Davenport, and Caledonia due to construction.
La Cubana's calling it quits after 13 years in T.O.—if you've been meaning to hit one of their locations, the clock's ticking. On the flip side, there's fresh openings worth scoping: Chef Nick Liu just opened Woodlyns, a Chinese-Jewish fusion spot at Bathurst and Eglinton, and Tous Les Jours is landing their first Canadian location at the North York H Mart this week if you're craving their pastries.
If you're planning to eat out tonight, there's plenty of live music across the city to pair with it. Metal's going off at the Phoenix and Lee's Palace, Arrows In Action are at the Mod Club, and if indie or folk's your speed, the mood's right for something intimate. The weather's cool enough that indoor venues are the play anyway.
Stay safe out there, and don't sleep on that extra commute time if you're hitting the 401.
