It's supposed to reach 13°C in Toronto this afternoon

What is this, April?

With these drizzly showers and warm temps, it may as well be.

And just how not-cold is it, you might ask? According to the Government of Canada’s website, the city is supposed to reach a high of 13°C this afternoon.

Fortunately (?) the unseasonal warmth won’t be sticking around for too long.

It looks like we’ll be back below 0°C by tonight, and the next few days will hover just around the point of freezing.

And while you’re enjoying this weirdly mild day, keep in mind that in 1982, it was 17°C on December 28.

Today might by warm, but that’s borderline hot.
