WEATHER: Extreme cold warning in effect for GTA and most of Ontario

Thursday for a large swath of the country, including the GTA.

The agency advised people to cover up any exposed skin, in order to avoid frostbite, which can develop within minutes. It also warned that the risk from the extreme cold is greater for young children, older adults, those with chronic illnesses, those who are without proper shelter, and those working or exercising outdoors.

A high of -13 C is expected during the day on Friday, warming up to a high of -4 C on Saturday and a high of 3 C on Sunday.Ironically, the Extreme Cold Warning comes on Groundhog Day, when people across North America turn to a slightly less scientific method for forecasting the weather in the hopes of glimpsing an early spring.

While the groundhogs hold a revered place in tradition, Phillips cautioned not to put too much stock in their predictions.Still, he said the enduring tradition speaks to Canadians’ obsession with weather.

I guess it's a big concern. Wow. Minus 20 is what I'm seeing and thats just the low. What a bunch of pssies.

Extreme cold warnings must have forced many people to travel south to places where the weather there is warmer! Winter is not Keisha Buchanan from Sugababes! It's cold! Tomorrow will be so cold that it's 'the Mafia's 'Ndrangheta, a powerful crime syndicate in Italy!'

Carbon tax is working too well on global warming.

Ha ha…and Leaf’s suck.

I’m off tomorrow so I’m staying home and watching tv

They use this picture every year...thank you for it!

What happened to Global Warming? Not enough CO2? If this was a heat wave it would be blamed on global warming and CO2. But this doesn't fit the narrative.

Stay warm!!

💖👍

Better bundle up you don’t wanna get myocarditis. But not too much because that’ll give you myocarditis too.

walking to campus tomorrow morning is gonna suck lol

Stay warm kids.

Yes, it's still winter in Toronto Ontario Canada Let's hope GroundhogDay & the ground hog is correct. Can't wait for spring to arrive. Shoveling snow isn't a favourite of mine.

Are school buses in zone 2 going to be cancelled tomorrow?

but but but climate change!....

only for 36 hours

I like the cold.. it keeps the gangstas inside and the homeless numbers begin to drop. A win win situation

My willie is about to hide for 6 more weeks

No interest in ‘watering down’ LTC standards to meet national ones, Ontario minister saysA lawyer on the committee that developed the national standards says they won’t ‘water down’ what Ontario is already doing, but will be complementary This is bs. 4 hrs of personal care a day? 24 hr period? So half hr every 3 hrs. Have the lawyers making the rules been inside a LTC lately? The seniors are lucky if one PSW shows up per shift. It’s terrible inside any Ontario LTC. …wouldn’t want to “water down” what province is already doing… The horrific practices in Ontario for-profit LTC couldnt get any lower -neglect -filth -bedbugs -starvation dehydration -sick & dying moved far away from family friend supports What’s PaulCalandra talking about? I can only imagine what the federal ones must look like given the state of LTC in Ontario.
