Original Toronto Star caption: A gray day downtown; Dense fog obstructs the view of downtown Toronto skyline from the CN Tower yesterday. Low-lying fog blanketed much of the city; while some areas around Metro were deluged by heavy thunder-storms and hail. Today will be cloudy and cool with showers; forecasters say. The high should be around 15C (59F) today and 18C (64F) tomorrow. Look for a high of about 22C (72f) Thursday.
