Cool, Rainy Saturday Ahead Before Heat Moves In Next Week
Toronto faces a mixed weekend with rain and wind on Saturday, but warmer spring-to-summer temperatures are finally on the way.
Friday's looking bright—mostly sunny skies and a high of 16°C—but don't get too comfortable. An easterly wind of 20–40 km/h keeps the lakefront feeling chilly, and clouds roll in Friday night with a chance of showers and a low around 10°C.
Saturday is the system to get through. Forecasters expect 10–20 millimetres of rain, steady easterly winds pushing 30–50 km/h, and a high of just 11°C. That's well below seasonal for late May, making it the kind of day best spent indoors.
The silver lining? Next week brings the warmth everyone's been waiting for. After the weekend's washout, temperatures are forecast to climb into the low 20s—proper spring weather that'll have patios filling up and parks packed by Wednesday. It's worth planning outdoor plans for early next week; Saturday's a washout, but the city's about to warm up fast.
