Could Toronto finally see snow fall this weekend?

It has been a mild fall this year in Toronto. In fact, with a few days left to go, Toronto could have its second warmest fall on record. Although there's a lot to enjoy about a mild fall, there's a group of people that haven't been so happy - the snow lovers!

Not a single flake has fallen in Toronto so far this season, the latest Toronto has seen snow fall is December 1, 2009.

But with some in the snowbelts enduring up to 100 cm of snow this weekend, will Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) see snow this weekend?

Small snow chances heading into the weekend

As lake effect bands drop copious amounts of snow near Lake Huron and Georgian Bay, the GTA will remain relatively snow free throughout the duration of the event. There is the chance for some locations in the GTA to see some passing flurries on Friday and Saturday, but Toronto will remain snow free.

Temperatures across the region will be chilly, hovering right around the freezing mark. The cold temperatures will remain in place for much of the distant future.

On Sunday, cold temperatures will remain, meaning that any precipitation that falls could be snow. As the lake effect snow squalls continue off the Great Lakes, the winds will shift throughout the day, causing the bands to sink further south.
