The frigid air has gripped Toronto, making it the coldest November 22 on record in the city.
On Thursday morning, the temperature dropped to -13 C — breaking the record of -12.4 set on this date in 1989. Add in the windchill and it felt like -20 C at one point.
On Wednesday, the city issued its first extreme cold weather alert of the not-yet-arrived winter season. The alert was lifted around 8:15 a.m. Thursday.
However, it will remain cold throughout the day as the cold wind persists. The temperature will rise to -6 C but the windchill will be near -10 for the afternoon.
But the cold won’t last forever. By Friday, the temperature will be near 3 C.
