A special weather statement has been issued for Toronto this morning as a “cluster” of thunderstorms roll into the GTA.

In its weather advisory, Environment Canada warned of multiple “slow moving thunderstorms” that are capable of producing wind gusts of up to 80 km/h and heavy rainfall.

“Strong wing gusts can toss loose objects and break branches off trees,” the advisory read.

    Environment Canada. They'll tell you stay inside and wait for the end of the Earth if there's going to be 2 in of rain

    Quit trying to scare us. Thunderstorms have been a normal occurrence since I can remember. All of a sudden it's like something out of this world. We finally start getting some warm weather, and it's a catastrophe. But one thing I might point out is, that with the vast amounts of housing subdivisions being built, to accommodate everyone from around the world, the heat that is generated from the sun shining on the roof tops, is sending vast amounts of radiated heat back up into the atmosphere. If anything is the cause of changes in weather, it is this.
  • @Trashyandtart
    Did you get dressed in a hurry this morning or are you dishevelled because of the heat?
  • @ec7374-

    STOP IT ... just ... S T O P ... I T
  • Heat and humidity often bring thunderstorms and heavy rains. Just the way the weather works and always has. Quit being such weather drama queens !

  • Complain about the heat, complain about the rain soon to be complaining about the cold!
  • @DustinG007
    Nonsense. We pay a tax to stop the weather.
  • @IKhanNot
    More fear mongering. Just go outside and enjoy yourself. Stay hydrated and pace yourself.
  • If Toronto is 'suggesting' people stay inside ( due to the heat ) HOW long before we have 'climate lockdowns' when NO ONE is allowed outside ? It'll be like the 'pandemic' ALL over, but without the jabs. Been there, done that - NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO YOU NEXT TIME.

    ..........another historical data does not exist story
  • Again, comments allowed on trivial nonsense but never on matters of political importance.
