Aurora, Ontario residents should prepare for a wet stretch as warm temperatures and rain move into the area starting Tuesday, March 10, 2026. According to Environment Canada, the forecast includes a 40 per cent chance of showers or drizzle on Tuesday, followed by more consistent rain through Wednesday, March 11.
The daytime high is expected to reach 12°C on Tuesday and 8°C on Wednesday, which is significantly higher than the usual seasonal high of 2°C. This warm trend, combined with the incoming rain, will likely cause the remaining winter snow to melt quickly across the community. By Tuesday night, the light drizzle is expected to turn into steady showers.
This rapid melting can lead to slushy road surfaces and water pooling on local streets. While the Town of Aurora Public Works department handles municipal drainage, residents are encouraged to help by making sure catch basins near their homes are clear of debris. Clearing these drains helps prevent water from backing up and putting too much pressure on the storm drain system.
Drivers should be ready for slower travel and splashing water on the roads throughout the mid-week period. While no official weather warnings are in place, the shift to rainy weather will create messy conditions for anyone commuting in the area during this warm stretch.
