Toronto is in for a warm and sticky day, with temperatures climbing to a high of 29°C. The humidex will make it feel more like 36°C, so be prepared for a hot day. The morning and early afternoon will bring a 40% chance of showers and a risk of thunderstorms, so it’s a good idea to keep an umbrella handy. Winds will be light, coming from the north at about 20 km/h, providing little relief from the humidity.
As the evening approaches, the temperature will drop to 18°C, with the chance of showers lingering into the night. The humidity will ease slightly, making for a more comfortable evening, though the skies will remain partly cloudy.
What to Wear
With the high humidity and risk of rain, lightweight, breathable clothing is your best bet. Don’t forget a rain jacket or umbrella, especially if you’ll be out during the morning or early afternoon. Sunglasses are also a good idea for when the sun peeks through the clouds.
Historical Weather Notes
On this date, Toronto has seen temperatures as high as 35.0°C in 1955 and as low as 4.4°C in 1972. The most rainfall recorded on this day was 38.0 mm back in 1995. Today’s weather, while warm, isn’t pushing any historical extremes, but the high humidity will make it feel intense.
Looking Ahead
The rest of the week will see slightly cooler temperatures with highs in the low 20s, and the risk of showers will persist into Tuesday before clearing up mid-week.
