Milton residents can expect a shift from unsettled weekend weather to a sunny and warm start to the week, according to Environment Canada. The forecast calls for a high of 27 C on Tuesday with a humidex of 31, making it feel a couple of degrees warmer than the seasonal norm of 25 C.
The unsettled weekend weather, which brought showers and a risk of thunderstorms, is expected to clear by Monday night, though Tuesday night could bring a 60 percent chance of showers. No alerts are in effect for Milton as of Monday afternoon.
Current conditions at Toronto Pearson International Airport, the weather station used for Milton, showed partly cloudy skies at 24.5 C with a humidex of 29 shortly after 1 p.m. on Monday. That aligns with the broader pattern this summer, as The Weather Network predicted a changeable season with more frequent interruptions from showers and thunderstorms.
Tuesday is forecast to be sunny, with fog patches dissipating in the morning and a mix of sun and cloud developing in the afternoon. The UV index is expected to reach 7, which is considered high, so residents spending time outdoors should take precautions. The overnight low is expected to be around 18 C.
For those planning outdoor activities, the early part of the week looks more settled. The warm spell is consistent with what AccuWeather shows for Milton in August, with daily highs ranging from about 21 C to 26 C. However, Tuesday’s predicted high of 27 C will feel noticeably warmer with the humidity.
