Spring-like temperatures expected to stay for at least another week

It’s too soon to tell if spring is here to stay, but forecasts suggest Torontonians will enjoy double-digit temperatures for at least another week.

The city saw a high of 20 C on Wednesday, just 1 C short of the record for Toronto’s warmest-ever March 9 set, in 2000 at 21.4 C.

Environment Canada is forecasting a high of 12 C on Thursday, with periods of rain beginning in the morning and ending in the afternoon.

Daily highs are expected to remain around the 10 C mark until Friday, March 18.

A detailed forecast is available on the Environment Canada website.
