Posted September 5, 2019 1:00 pm.

680 NEWS traffic reporter Jordan Kerr is our eye in the sky, and he’ll be providing his top five pictures every Thursday.

September is here, and the mornings are getting darker. Which means more sunrise shots! There are a lot of lakes in the GTA, and the sun reflecting off them as it rises is magnificent. We also had some interesting cloud activity earlier in the week where there were strips of very low hanging clouds cutting through Toronto.

Enjoy the gallery, and check back every Thursday for a new set of photos.
