A Bright and Breezy Start
Toronto is welcoming September with mainly sunny skies today. The temperature will hover around 20°C, with a northwest breeze at 20 km/h gusting up to 40 km/h, so it might feel a little cooler than the thermometer suggests. As we move into the evening, the skies will stay clear, and the wind will ease up, dropping the temperature to a brisk 10°C. This is a perfect evening to grab a sweater and take a stroll.
Midweek Warmth and Sunshine
Tuesday through Thursday promises gorgeous weather with plenty of sunshine. Temperatures will gradually rise, hitting highs of 23°C on Tuesday and peaking at 25°C on Wednesday and Thursday. Humidity levels will be moderate, making these days feel warm but comfortable. Evenings will remain clear, with lows ranging from 12°C to 17°C, so your outdoor evening plans are safe—at least until Friday.
The Weekend Turns Grey
Starting Friday, clouds will roll in, bringing a 40% chance of showers that could dampen the city throughout the weekend. Friday’s high will be around 23°C, dropping to 14°C at night. Saturday looks cooler and cloudier with temperatures only reaching 20°C, and a low of 11°C expected overnight. Sunday might offer some breaks in the clouds with a mix of sun and cloud, but it’s shaping up to be a cooler day at 19°C.
