Residents in Ajax, Ontario, should prepare for wet weather starting Tuesday, March 10, 2026, as a sunny start to the week gives way to several days of rain. According to Environment Canada, the community will see a mix of showers and steady rain through the middle of the week.
The forecast calls for a 40 percent chance of showers or drizzle on Tuesday morning and afternoon, with a daytime high of 11°C. These conditions are expected to turn into steady showers by Tuesday night and continue throughout Wednesday, March 11, 2026, when temperatures will reach a high of 8°C.
A significant temperature drop is expected on Wednesday night, with the thermometer falling to a low of -4°C. This cold shift brings a 60 percent chance of flurries or rain showers, which could create icy patches on local roads and sidewalks by Thursday morning.
Local drivers are encouraged to leave extra time for their commutes and be mindful of standing water on the roads. Deep puddles can lead to hydroplaning, which is when tires lose their grip on the pavement and slide on top of the water instead.
Pedestrians should also stay alert for splashing from passing vehicles as water collects in low areas. Following the wet weather, residents may need to watch for localized ponding on sidewalks and streets where drainage might be slow during the early spring season.
