rfmcdonaldThe Toronto Star reports.
Environment Canada released a special weather statement Friday morning, warning Toronto residents of a “significant winter storm” over Saturday and Sunday.
According to the statement, snow will begin falling Saturday, and as temperatures rise, this snow will turn into rain.
As much as 5 to 10 cm of snow is expected to fall on parts of central and eastern Ontario.
There is a risk of freezing rain Saturday afternoon, as temperatures inch above zero, and then rain by the evening, with winds gusting up to 20 km/h.
Temperatures will surge Sunday, with a high of 10 C forecast for Toronto, and there will be more periods of rain.
The warmth won’t last, however, as a cold front is predicted to travel across the southern part of the province, bringing with it powerful winds and flurries. The temperature is set to plummet to -9 C overnight Sunday.
