"Intense heat, humidity" returning to Toronto later this week

It looks like the extremely warm weather will be back as The Weather Network says intense heat and humidity will soon return to Ontario as storm risk continues.

On Monday, The Weather Network said that intense heat is expected to surge back late this week.

These hotter temperatures can be attributed to a building of high pressure over the Great Lakes.

For the next seven days in Toronto, temperatures will feel hotter than 30°C, with the humidex.
