Frost Advisory Issued for Toronto as Temperatures Plunge to Near Freezing

A frost advisory has been issued for Toronto, with temperatures expected to drop to near freezing in the early hours of Thursday morning. According to Environment Canada, residents should be prepared for frosty conditions as the thermometer dips close to 0°C. While the frosty temperatures are expected to be short-lived, it's crucial to take preventive measures to protect sensitive plants, especially in frost-prone areas across the city.

The advisory comes as a reminder that fall is here in full force, and the colder temperatures are settling in. Although the forecast predicts sunny skies and a high of 16°C later on Thursday, the overnight chill could still pose a threat to frost-sensitive plants and vegetation. Gardeners are advised to cover their plants or bring them indoors if possible, especially those that might be vulnerable to the sudden cold snap. Even though Toronto's lakeshore areas might be slightly warmer due to the moderating effect of the water, much of the city, particularly inland, will feel the chill as the mercury dips overnight.

This advisory marks one of the first significant frost warnings of the season, signaling the transition from the pleasant days of autumn to the colder weather ahead. Southern Ontario, including Toronto, has already experienced some early signs of winter-like conditions this week, with reports of graupel and lake-effect snow in some areas. This shift in weather comes alongside Toronto’s final sunset before 6:30 p.m., as daylight hours continue to shorten leading up to the winter solstice.

However, there's good news on the horizon: after enduring this chilly night, the region is expected to enjoy a beautiful weekend with plenty of sunshine and milder temperatures. So, while the frost advisory might serve as a reminder to brace for colder days, the forecast promises a pleasant break in the weather just around the corner. Make sure to take precautions tonight, and prepare to enjoy the sunny weekend ahead!
