Labour Day - The Unofficial End of the Summer Season

Well it's Labour Day already. I say already, because it just seems like a few weeks ago it was the Victoria Day weekend kicking off the start of Summer. Now, Summer is drawing to a close. Temperatures have been kind of cool this long weekend as well as an upper level low has kept cloud cover up and temperatures down. Also no thanks to a sharp cold front that passed through the areas Friday night.
Some scattered showers are continuing across Southern Ontario today with temperatures hovering around the 20° mark for many centres.

Warmer air will begin to move into the regions for Tuesday as the Jet stream lifts above the region. Humidity will also return with values into the mid 30's for the afternoon hours. I wouldn't be surprised if some shower or thunderstorm activity pops up across Southern Ontario. There is a cold fron that is poised to cross the region Tuesday night and depending on the time of passage, we may see some good storm activity. Environment Canada says there is the chance that some storms may reach severe limits with damaging wind gusts and torrential downpours.
