Dust off your picnic blanket, folks. After weeks of wintry misery, southern Ontario is finally in for some beautiful spring weather, and frankly, it's about time.
According to The Weather Network, Friday will be remarkably sunny, with temperatures floating around 14 to 15 degrees for most regions, offering residents perfect strolling conditions ahead of the weekend.
The unseasonably warm temperatures are a result of a warm front lifting across the Great Lakes, allowing temperatures to spike dramatically.
Saturday will bring some summery warmth to southwestern Ontario, where temperatures will be into the upper 20s.
But Sunday is supposed to be the best day to get out and enjoy the warmer temps. Areas like Windsor and London will see temps of 28 and 26 degrees, respectively. Barrie and Huntsville will see a high of 21 degrees and Hamilton will reach a pleasant 20 degrees.
Thankfully, Torontonians won't be totally robbed of the warm weather. On Sunday, the 6ix is predicted to see a high of 15 degrees, so expect areas like Trinity Bellwoods to get fairly busy.
It's worth noting that rainfall is also possible for most of southern Ontario. However, it won't be anything like the nasty downpours the province has been experiencing lately.
"It is going to be beautiful, also, with the rainfall moving through. We aren't gonna be looking at too much, maybe just a millimetre or two, maybe a little more of the stalling showers down towards Kitchener and London," Kevin MacKay, TWN meteorologist, said.
Of course, we're not out of the woods yet. The toasty temperatures are forecast to dip back to below seasonal by Wednesday, with the cooler pattern set to hang around to start the month of May.
So if you haven't made any outdoor plans this weekend, you might want to schedule something or risk missing out.
