2 w. ago Toronto temperatures will actually be colder than the Arctic this week

Springlike weather might just be put on pause in Toronto this week, as the ultimate Uno-reverse takes place, sending balmy temperatures to the Arctic and frigid ones to southern Ontario.It's no secret that the weather in Toronto has been flip-flopping all season long, but this week, it also looks like two very different regions will be trading temperatures for a few days, the Weather Network reports.As Toronto will grapple with what Meteorologist Kevin Mackay describes as "some of the coldest air in almost a decade for April" this week, some of the warmest temperatures in the country can be found "well above the 60th parallel."Up around the western half of the Arctic Circle, balmy temperatures in the mid-single digits are forecast to linger all week long, while Toronto fights to break the freezing mark. Talk about the short end of the stick! Mackay goes on to note that, while this seemingly backwards weather system is certainly an anomaly, the far north is no stranger to m...
