Parts of southern Ontario could be hit with snowfall in a few days.
Forecasters are tracking the threat of active weather for the region, including for the Greater Toronto Area.
It would mark a drastic shift in weather conditions, compared to temperatures above 20 C that were seen in the GTA a week prior.
In Toronto, high temperatures are still expected to be above 10 C through the middle of the week.
Notably, it will be beautiful on Tuesday with a high of 14 C and sunny conditions, according to Environment Canada.
It will get colder beginning Thursday and that’s when active weather is expected to move in.
The Weather Network is forecasting a high of 6 C in Toronto in Thursday, with a low of 1 C, which will feel more like -4 C.
There is no doubt temps will support snowfall across most of Southern #Ontario Thursday night into Friday
Surface/ temps aloft are expected to be near/ below freezing
Accumulations will likely occur on both elevated/ paved surfaces
Models have been shifting the swath of accumulating snow around over the past couple of days
As short range/ mesocale models come into range in the coming days, we should have a better idea as to the impacts
As always, will monitor and update

Will the U.S. midterm election results be GOOD or BAD for Canada’s economy?
Currently, The Weather Network isn’t forecasting significant accumulation for Toronto.
But we are still several days out, there is uncertainty and modelling could change.
More rain is then expected on Friday, with an overnight low of 0 C that’s expected to be feel like -5 C.
Rain-snow showers are possible Friday night as well, The Weather Network says.
All jokes aside, first snowfall of the season is becoming increasingly likely for some across Southern #Ontario mid next week ❄️
Uncertainty remains on specifics (track, duration, amounts)
As of now, the timing appears to be Thursday PM into Friday AM
With marginal temps, most of the accumulations will take place overnight while temps are coldest
Good news, if you’re not ready for snow, this event looks very short lived with temps warming up shortly after
Will monitor and update!
