the world to honour the king, to catch a glimpse of rock 'n' roll royalty at elvis presley's iconic memphis home, the final resting place for presley and his family. >> I mean it should be in elvis's family, always. >> We hope that it stays with the family. Graceland means so much to our community. It does so much for our economy. We attract over 600,000 visitors each year. >> Brandon: but the mansion was scheduled for foreclosure and set to hit the auction block this week after a lending company claimed it was the rightful owner. [ ] well, I'm evil so don't you mess around with me >> Nosoni investments says elvis's daughter lisa marie took out a $3.8 million loan and paut up graceland as collateral. The company alleges she never paid them back before she died last year, and, therefore, the 14-acre property belongs to them. >> The real estate is considered unique under tennessee law. >> Brandon: the lan landmark home, front and centre in court this week to determine its rightful owner after elvis's granddaughter and heir riley keough claimed the documents are fake. Nosoni isn't even a real company. >> [ Unclear ] successful on the merits [ Unclear ] has been alleged. >> Brandon: now the court has delayed the forecloche your until a hearing to determine the facts. Made even more confusing by the notary, who swears she never met lisa marie presley or notarized her signature on the loan paperwork. >> Which brings into question as to the authenticity of the signature and indeed the trust as being a fraud. >> Brandon: on thursday the lending company said it would not be moving forward with the por closure and will withdraw all claims to the property. Brandon choghri, "CityNews." [ ] >> Cynthia: a potentially fierce wildfire season has already begun, and now canadians are being warned about the possibility of a significant hurricane season as well. >> We do expect climate change to worsen the impacts of hurricanes, particularly the rainfall effects and particularly the storm surge impacts. >> We see water temperatures this warm, you're looking at intensity and you're looking at the rate of intensification, which can be tremendous. >> Cynthia: climate watchers are forecasting an above-average hurricane season in the atlantic ocean anywhere between 17 and 25 named storms are expected and up to 13 of those could become full-fledged hurricanes. The atlantic provinces are usually the most impacted in canada, but it's still too early to determine what path those storms will take. And of course you'll be watching those very closely. Is this all a result of the warmer temperatures that we've been seeing? >> Natasha: absolutely. The warmer temperatures not only just in the air but sea surface. That's the fuel. You need temperatures of the 5°, very particular in order for these tropical systems to survive. The hotter it is the more fuel you're adding to the fire. You are right. We can't determine the track until these storms develop so that's something we have to watch. But take a look at the current sea surface temperatures in the caribbean sea and in the gulf of mexico. This is hot bath water, guys and that is way well above the 26.5° threshold to keep these things going. And guess what? As of right now, we've got a disturbance in the caribbean. It's only got a 10% chance of development this one out of the national hurricane centre. This update was at 5 p.m. Today. Only anticipate that that map is going to get busier and busier over the next few weeks. Hurricane season doesn't even start until june 1st, by the way. 24° out here right now. The nice fresh breeze so if you can open the windows and get a cross breeze through the house you've got those gusts up to 40 kilometres per hour. Look at the forecast cloud cover over the next ten days. Tomorrow, no cloud. After that we've got cloud, yeah. But here's the thing. The lack of cloud tomorrow means it is going to be the day with the highest U.V. index, although even at 6 and 7 you've still got get that sunscreen on. Burn time anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes at a 6 and 7 for unprotected skin. Check this out though. There's a frost advisory up around lake superior. So why do you care in toronto? Well, first I'll show you the

overnight lows. There's the current temperature, 24° in toronto. Overnight lows tonight down to -2 in some areas in northwestern ontario and thunder bay only getting up to 6. Tomorrow we're going to be in the 20s in toronto. Again, natasha, why do we care? Here's why. As we head towards the end of the month some of that cool air is going to sink down in through central ontario and just graze the G.T.A. by next wednesday and thursday. Here's the thing. It's not going to be frost. Don't freak out. It's going to be 16° but it is going to be 4, 5° below seasonal for about a day and a half and then we'll rebound back into the 20s. This weekend saturday's looking to be the day with the risk of thunderstorms and that's coming through between about noon and 3 p.m. It's not going going to be an all day rain. Just going to watch that midday window and be dry for the rest of weekend. There's that little bit of a cooldown next week with some gusty wind as well. >> Kyle: it's kyle hocking airborne. Just having a look at your drive. That's downtown from the east. Wore' in leslieville right now and we've got a problem here on dundas. In the middle of a construction zone. This is dundas and logan. Just west of logan you can see the rail bridge there. That's what crews have been working on. Westbound dundas closed because of a crash involving an S.U.V. and pickup truck. There is a bicycle as well on its side on the other side of that pickup truck. That may also be involve involved. Westbound traffic is actually not that bad as you travel towards this closure but you will be forced to turn when you get to logan. East of broad view west of carlaw. Eastbound 401 by McCOWAN in the collectors, two left lanes are blocked because of a crash involving a motorcycle. >> After a devastating accident, trust the lawyers at thomson rogers to guide you, from the hospital room to the courtroom.

>> If we're going to be a world-class city, we need to think world class. >> Cynthia: the battle lines have been drawn. In just over two weeks, voters in one of ontario's largest cities will be heading to the polls to elect a new mayor. And for those who are still deciding who to vote for, tonight is a must see tv. "CityNews 24/7" will be airing a live debate starting at 7 p.m., right after our newscast. And the moderator for tonight is our one and only mark McALLISTER who joins us now. Mark, who is going to be participating in tonight's debate? >> Mark: well, cynthia, we will have four people on stage with us tonight. Of the 20 mayoral candidates that are taking part in the actual election itself. One, however, will be notably absent. This is all based on polling over the last few weeks, and carolyn parrish is the one name that stands out as the person who has been atop of the polls. She has declined not to take part in tonight's debate and other debates for her own reasons. She has said she would prefer to spend time with the voters and speak to them one on one. That said, the four that are taking part here tonight, dipika damerla. Alvin tedjo is going to be here and we're going to be joined by stephen dasko and brian crombie. The first three of course are city councillors as we speak. Brian crombie, best known as the ex hulls of former mayor bonnie crombie but also an executive within the private sector. Lots to talk about here tonight. We're going to have plenty of different themes as well, cynthia. >> Cynthia: mark, it's fascinating. This is a very large city, one of the largest in ontario and it's high up there in canada as well. There have only been two mayors in decades. Hazel McCALLION, bonnie crombie. What are the main themes you're going to be covering tonight? What matters to miss sawing gans? >> Mark: I think first and foremost, food banks mississauga that is hosting this event tonight so you can bet that we're going to be concentrating quite a bit on affordability and food security and income security, making sure that the people of mississauga certainly have candidates that do have platforms that are going to speak to those specific needs. And as well you know that a big part of that conversation is affordable housing and making sure people have roofs over their head and have the ability to find that place to live despite the fact that they might be earning a lower income as well. So when we talk about food banks specifically, I do want to point out that march saw the highest number of food bank users ever here at food banks mississauga, at nearly 20,000. That's a 20% increase over last year alone. And so that's why we're here. We want to hear from the candidates specifically about what they have on tap in terms of their platforms. >> Cynthia: sense of what voters will be looking to hear from the candidates tonight? >> Mark: well, cynthia, you and I well know that, in covering many, many elections, voters first and foremost want to make sure that they hear what they want to hear from the platforms and that there is some solid platforms available, and not just rhetoric from politicians or want-to-be politicians at the podium and making sure that they're offering what people simply want to hear. So something solid, something that people can dive into and make sure that they know is going to be delivered. And as you've pointed out as well. Here in mississauga specifically, there is a matter of stability. We to that hazel McCALLION was here appears the mayor for many, many decades, and we know that bonnie crombie was here as mayor for ten years beyond that. They want to be able to look at the people here on this stage tonight, and any other candidate, and to that they might be here for a while and they're going to be able to deliver. >> Cynthia: all right, mark. Thank you very much. It's going to be an interesting debate. And you can watch mark moderate tonight's mississauga mayoral debate over on "CityNews 24/7" starting right after our show at 7 p.m. >> We get a staggering $868 million less per year than the other communities. That equates to $576 for every person every single year. >> Cynthia: and that shortfall impacts several local services including housing, schools, child care and senior care. That forces mississauga, brampton and caledon to reallocate about $140 from each resident's property taxes to help cover the difference. >> The study was conducted by a network of nonprofit agencies and presented to peel regional council for both information and action. >> Announcer: next on "CityNews" -- >> Audra: ideas from kids that could change the future.
