Just when you thought you could pack away that parka, the weather rollercoaster plunged into minus double digits once again as predictably unpredictable April weather settles in across the GTA.
Toronto woke up to freezing temperatures with wind making it feel closer to -10, along with a thin layer of snow and ice on the roads and sidewalks.
Light, scattered flurries have tapered off and it will be cold and mainly sunny for the rest of the day.
The daytime high is expected to reach just 2 C, which is well below seasonal as the average for this time of year is 9 C. The low is expected to be around -6 C.
Driving these frigid temperatures is cold Arctic air that’s being pushed into the area by northwesterly winds gusting up to 60 kilometres per hour. Those winds are expected to die down by the afternoon and into the evening hours.
A special weather statement was in effect for areas north of Toronto, in the Uxbridge – Beaverton – Northern Durham Region and Pickering – Oshawa – Southern Durham Region for morning snow. It has since ended.
Temperatures climb mid-week
Keep both your parkas and lighter coats handy as temperatures are set to rise, fall and then rise again with the rest of the week also playing out in typically erratic April fashion.
Wednesday will be filled with wall-to-wall sunshine, but temperatures will still be running a tad below seasonal. The daytime high is expected to reach 5 C with a low of 3 C.
Thursday is shaping up to be the warmest day of the week with temperatures expected to spike to an above seasonal daytime high of 17 C but brief passing showers are expected mid-day.
Friday morning could be tricky for travel as precipitation across the north GTA may begin as wet snow, then change to rain with the daytime high dipping back down to 6 C.
The weekend is expected to be more comfortable and both Saturday and Sunday are looking dry with temperatures in the double digits, between 11 to 13 C.
