The Old Farmer’s Almanac have released their Christmas Day forecast.

In Canada, snow will be on the ground (or at least in the air) for Christmas Day in Southern Ontario, Southern Quebec, the Prairies, and Southern British Columbia, as well as way up north in the Yukon and Northwest Territories.

In Atlantic Canada, rain will plague the days leading up to Christmas, but snow is likely to make an appearance on the holiday itself.

The first day of winter 2022 is on Wednesday, December 21st. They say this Winter will be colder than normal, with above-normal precipitation and snowfall.

The CP Holiday Train is making a stop at the John D. Bradley Centre tomorrow at 2:30.

This will be the train’s first return since 2019, it was virtual over the last two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The train is 1,000 feet long and decked out in holiday decor and LED lights. It’s making its way across Canada and the U.S. for its first cross-continent tour after three years of virtual concerts. The CP Holiday Train program has two trains, one that travels only in Canada and another with stops in both Canada and the U.S.

Lindsay Ell and Texas Hill will be performing between 2:45 and 3:15.

The event is free but CP encourages people to bring food donations to help address hunger in their communities. Local food banks will be accepting donations at each stop to ensure those less fortunate have enough healthy food this holiday season.

Mercedes-Benz is offering owners a new feature called the Acceleration Increase.

For a price of $1,200 a year, the feature allows drivers to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in one second faster than they normally would without service.

Mercedes-Benz owners are not happy that they have to pay for the extra speed.

Feel the need for speed? It’ll cost you.
