Decades earlier, a child in his family passed away from cf complications. >> I felt quite helpless because I love kids. >> Foster now covers his shirt and the names of people diagnosed with cf. He's personally raised more than $220,000 over the years. >> I enjoy the whole idea that I am actually helping somebody. They every dollar I raise helps somebody to live longer. Then that's great. I'm doing a good thing. >> The walk also shows that those living with cf, who often feel isolated and are not alone. The goal is to raise $33,000 locally this year.

All due to this disturbance that's sliding into eastern ontario and this morning, some showers, even an isolated thunderstorm. And you can see that that's pushed in. We'll see a bit of a lull and then another wave will move in this afternoon. In total 20 to 40mm possible by the end of today into tomorrow. So, this will be some soaking rains at times. And you can see winds currently out of the east. They will turn to a southwest wind and going to be a little breezy at times, likely 30 to 40km, 30 to 50km/h throughout the day. Today we're starting off pretty mild. We should still be in the high single digits as an overnight low. Nowhere near that. We're more towards the mid teens and we'll get into the low 20s as a daytime high today with the humidex, though, it will feel closer to the high 20s. So here's a look at what we can expect. More periods of rain thunderstorms, heavier downpours possible through this afternoon and then likely another wave that pushes through tomorrow afternoon. Then after that we should be into some drier weather. Although in the wake of that system it will be cooler. Let's take a look at your seven day forecast. So yes, some showers at times on tuesday 17 degrees in the high teens on wednesday and thursday. We do return to the 20s though. It looks like on friday the mid 20s with the sun cloud mix at this point for saturday and sunday. And that's a look at your forecast. >> Thank you ross. This is "global news" morning peterborough.
