GTA residents being asked to stay home will gladly oblige this weekend.
It’s going to be the coldest of the winter season so far.
Friday marks the coldest morning of the winter so far with a temperature of -14.6 at Pearson airport. There will be a bitter windchill of -21 to -23 throughout the morning which will settle down to around -12 throughout the day.
Expect another freezing morning on Saturday with a windchill around -22.
Friday’s high is -7. We’ll see a similar temperature for Saturday a high near -4 on Sunday.
Coldest morning so far this season! ???? Thursday’s morning low was -13.8°C but as of 6am #Toronto YYZ is now at -14.6°C. The wind chill is at -22. I’m not used to this yet are you? ????
