But now is perfect. It just a nice into the weekend but we have some active weather to contend with first. Bring an umbrella if you go outdoors and if you were out for saturday. The good news is that it is not a wash of a day but we are expecting some unsettled weather to kick off our weekend. Weather is brought you by train, the most reliable heating and cooling brand, it is hard to stop a train. It really has been one of those perfect spring and early summer days that we had. Just a light wind out there. We had the sunshine, light cloud it was just gorgeous. That continues this evening if you want to take it out for a walk or maybe you are plank sports tonight outside, a great night to do so. Temperature wise we sing at 25 not contending with too much as high pressure holds firm. 27 in windsor, a little cooler out through ottawa tech anywhere north of sault ste. Marie, we are seeing those mid-single digit in low double digits. Tonight here in the city and throughout the majority of the gta, holding on around 13 or 14 degrees. Seasonal norms around 11 so we are pretty close. Everybody seeing it where we should be. The active weather begins in the southwestern corner towards windsor tonight and then sweeps its way across as we had throughout the day tomorrow. But even with the active weather, we do not cool down all that much as we sit at 24 for us and the same through london, waterloo, hamilton, niagara. It is quite comfortable even with the active weather. The bulk of the system, again will be northern ontario but a bit of a trough coming down off of that that will rise as the cold front comes through, that is what we will see as we had throughout the day tomorrow. Timing it all out, clear tonight if you're heading out this evening, absolutely stunning. It is as we head into the late morning that we see the first round of rain and the chance will linger into the early evening around six and then we see sunshine before the day is over. So not a wash of a day by any means and as we get into sunday, lots of sunshine until about 7:00 pm and then we watch for the of showers to roll in. Temperature wise, were just above the seasonal mark start to finish saturday and sunday. Sunday is the dryer day of the two. Messy weather comes in late in the day sunday and brings us and A3s down a little. A civil digit low on wednesday to kind of mark the middle of the week and then, again, just in time for thursday and friday next week wi our products for quality Over and over and over again."
