Halton Region Under Cold Warning

By: Laura Steiner

Halton Region is under a cold warning beginning today.  Such alerts are issued when temperatures reach a low of -15 degrees Celsius before wind-chill.

Environment Canada issues an extreme cold warning for outdoor activity when the temperature reaches -30 degrees Celsius for a period of 2 hours.

The warning is in effect until daytime temperatures improve, and reduce the risks of long-term exposure.  The Town of Milton encourages residents to check vulnerable friends, family and neighbours.
