Torontonians should prepare for a wet and windy commute home today.
Environment Canada has issued a severe thunderstorm watch for the city and much of southern Ontario ahead of heavy rain and scattered thunderstorms.
The system is expected to develop near Windsor around noon and move into Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area after 4 p.m.
The advisory includes Hamilton, Niagara, Halton, Peel, York, Durham, Innisfil, Barrie, Peterborough, and Simcoe.
“These storms will track eastward across southern and central Ontario during the afternoon and early evening hours,” the national weather agency said.
“Isolated, damaging wind gusts may occur with some of these storms.”
Hail, torrential downpours and frequent lightning are also possible, the advisory says.
The wet weather will be accompanied by muggy conditions.
Environment Canada is calling for a high of 29 C today, feeling more like 37 when humidity is factored in.
The agency is also calling for a 40 per cent chance of showers, with a risk of a thunderstorm, on Friday afternoon. The high is expected to be 26 C with a humidex value of 30.
The weekend won’t be spared from the wet weather either, as a 30 per cent chance of showers is expected both Saturday and Sunday.

I'm grateful it did not rain last night at the outdoor venue Budweiser Stage for the triple bill with Stone Temple Pilots, Bush and The Cult. It was actually warm and great weather for a nice outdoor concert with 3 co-headliners.
hearing lightning on AM radio here we go again!

Thunderstorms could close out the long weekend after three straight days of stifling heat in Toronto.
A severe thunderstorm watch has been issued for the city of Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area with Environment Canada warning of storms capable of producing strong wind gusts and heavy rain.
“Thunderstorms are expected to develop this afternoon over portions of southern Ontario. Some of these thunderstorms will have the potential to produce significant rainfall amounts as well as wind gusts to 90 km/h. Some hail is possible as well,” the national weather agency said in an advisory issued Monday.
“Additional thunderstorms may affect the area this evening and tonight as well.”
Toronto and much of southern Ontario also remain under a heat warning, which was issued earlier this weekend.
Toronto is expected to see a high of 33 C today but the temperature will feel closer to 40 with the humidity.
A cold front will move into the area on Tuesday, bringing the heat wave to an end.
