As we head into the weekend, sunshine will mix with cloudy periods during Friday and temperatures will continue to be several degrees above seasonal - more typical of mid-October, but we will also have a gusty northwest wind.
Friday night will be clear and chilly (near seasonal).
Saturday will feature abundant sunshine, however, it will be noticeably cooler with high temperatures that are actually near seasonal for early November.
Some limited sunshine is possible early Sunday, especially to the east of Toronto, but we will see increasing clouds through the day. Showers will develop from west to east across southern Ontario as we go through the afternoon and evening. Temperatures will be a few degrees above seasonal.
Rain is likely Sunday night, and scattered showers could linger into Monday, especially north and east of the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).
However, clouds will eventually mix with sunny periods during the day on Monday and temperatures will be several degrees above seasonal.
