Blue skies and sunshine stick around most of the week

Reta Ismail has the latest forecast as we await spring's arrival

Temperatures in the London are are hanging around the seasonal mark as we head into the official start of spring later this week.

There’s plenty of sunshine in the forecast with high pressure in play, according to Reta Ismail.

“We’ve had winds out of the northwest about 10 to 20 kilometers per hour, so it has certainly felt a little bit cooler. [There are] clear blue skies right across the region with the high pressure really dominating today into tomorrow.”

There are a few low pressure systems that are going to push through, as well said Ismail, but not until late day Wednesday to Thursday.

“So the next 24 to 36 hours will be dry for us. There is this week low-pressure system that will swing through to the north. It will bring some cloud cover near the Bruce Peninsula, but the rest of us, wall to wall sunshine for your Tuesday,” she added.

It’s a similar story for your Wednesday, although there is some light moisture again further to the north, the rest of us we should be in the clear until Thursday when spring officially arrives.

Here’s a look at the rest of the forecast
