What Affects Toronto Weather?
- Lake effect: Proximity to the Great Lakes can produce intense localized snowfall and moisture in Toronto and surrounding areas.
- Jet stream patterns: Shifts in the polar jet stream bring Arctic air masses in winter and warm, humid air in summer.
- Urban heat island: Dense urban development means Toronto often records higher temperatures than surrounding rural areas, especially overnight.
- Storm tracks: Low-pressure systems tracking up the St. Lawrence Valley and across the Great Lakes are responsible for most significant precipitation events.
