Environment Canada issues special warning

Environment Canada has issued a special weather warning that we may see as much as 50 mm of rain over the weekend. It is more likely we’ll receive something like 20 to 40 mm (as noted in the post below). In its long-term forecast, Environment Canada said 10 to 20 mm was expected for Toronto on Friday night and that seems about right. The rain started about 2 a.m.in South Bayview, It is said we’ll get another10 to 20 mm today. Fortunately, the drenching seem to be coming in stages, giving the sewers and land to dispose of the collections somewhat. The rainfall will be followed by cooler air and brisk winds late Saturday and Sunday, Environment Canada said. In Toronto, Saturday’s high will be 22 C, followed by a high of 20 C on Sunday.
