Warmer weather on the horizon for Toronto this weekend [Video]

After a stretch of below seasonal temperatures this week, summer-like weather is set to arrive in Toronto late this weekend.

Environment Canada says Toronto could see a high of 22 C on Sunday, about eight degrees warmer than the average temperature for April 28. Although warm, Sunday’s daytime high likely won’t surpass the temperature record of 28 C set back in 1938.

Despite an abnormally mild winter, there have been very few balmy days this spring.

Thursday will see sunshine but a chilly daytime high of 9 C, about five degrees cooler than the average high for April 25. Toronto will see sunny skies and a seasonal high of 15 C on Friday.

CP24 Meteorologist Bill Coulter said while “showers will impact your Saturday plans,” Sunday should be mostly dry.

Rain is the forecast early next week but the warmer temperatures are expected to stick around on Monday and Tuesday.
