Summer isn’t quite ready to give up its grip on Toronto just yet, and locals are in for another welcome blast of warm weather to kick off the new month.
An unseasonably warm heat wave is heading to the city, bringing summer-like conditions right to our doorstep on Thursday, October 1, 2026.
While sweater weather is usually in full swing by now, Toronto will reach a soaring high of 23 C on Thursday. Thanks to lingering humidity, it’s going to feel like a balmy 27 C during the peak of the day for possibly the last time of 2026.
Whether you’re planning to take a stroll along the harbourfront, hang out in Trinity Bellwoods, or sip iced coffee on a sunny patio, you’ll definitely want to swap your cozy flannels for short sleeves.
Make the most of the sudden warm spell while you can, because autumn weather is bound to catch up with us eventually!
