BUFFALO, NY (WKBW) -- The weather was chilly, but that didn't stop thousands from coming out to the annual St. Patrick's Day Parade downtown Sunday.

Channel 7 once again was part of the festivities, with Meteorologist Aaron Mentkowski and others from the Eyewitness News team taking part in the parade.

Senator Charles Schumer took time to chat with us before the parade began.

Our exclusive 'Parade Cam' caught the action as we drove along Delaware Avenue to the warm reception of the large crowd. Chants of 'Channel 7' erupted as we approached Allen Street.

Aaron Mentkowski made some new friends as he jumped from the van into a crowd of fans to shake hands and snap a few pictures.

Check out our slide show and watch the video to take part in the fun and experience the parade from our perspective.
