Cold Saturday — theatre, music, and a frost advisory to plan around.

Morning's sharp—we're down to 2°C with mainly clear skies, so if you're heading out before dark (sun's gone by 6:31 PM), layer up. There's a frost advisory in effect, so anything you've got growing won't thank you for leaving it out overnight. UV's moderate at 3.0, so you're fine there, but it's the cold that'll get you.

A few road closures are live today around the waterfront and downtown—Gardiner's got work eastbound before Park Lawn, and there's some tie-ups on Lake Shore between Bathurst and Yonge, plus Bay Street between Front and the waterfront. Nothing that'll wreck your day, but if you're heading that way, give yourself a minute extra.

On the real stuff: a Toronto mum's been pushing hard for mandatory AEDs in Ontario schools after her son's cardiac arrest—it's a conversation worth following. Mike Layton's back in the running for Ward 11 after Saxe stepped back, and Chow's pledging 20 percent of the new Scarborough East LRT jobs to local youth. There's also a CBC look at whether Regent Park's revitalization actually landed as promised—worth a read if you've been watching that neighbourhood change.

If you're hungry, there's free food around the city this Thanksgiving weekend—turkeys, pies, vegan roasts if you know where to look. New spot called Bodega TinTin just landed on St. Clair West with Venezuelan-Spanish cocktails and tapas if you want to get out. And if you're in the mood for a deeper dive, there's a whole piece on six Toronto pastry chefs ranking the city's best baked goods worth lining up for.

For tonight, you've got real options. Hell's Kitchen's at the Ed Mirvish Theatre at 2 PM if you want afternoon theatre. Casa Loma's doing Halloween Harvest and their spooky Legends of Horror thing (family hours at 5:30, regular at 6), so if you've got kids or just want to walk around a haunted castle, it's there. Comedy-wise, Kanan Gill's at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre at 6 PM. And if you're opera people, La Traviata's on at the Four Seasons Centre at 4:30 PM. Tonight's a good night to get out—just don't stay too late; it'll be frigid by then.

Keep warm out there.
