GTA under heat warning as climatologist warns that 'warmest part of summer has yet to come'

Most of Ontario, including the City of Toronto, is under a heat warning and one expert saying this could be the beginning of a “warmer than usual” summer.

Temperatures in Toronto are expected to reach about 40 C with the humidex over the next two days, with little overnight relief.

“Daytime high temperatures reaching near 31 degrees Celsius with humidex values in the upper thirties are expected Tuesday and Wednesday,” the warning says. On Wednesday, the temperature is expected to rise to 31 C with a 60 per cent chance of thunderstorms. While slightly cooler temperatures are expected Thursday, Environment Canada is still predicting a high of 29 C.
