The frigid weather this morning in Toronto set a temperature record for May 12.
According to Environment Canada, the temperature at Pearson Airport dropped down to -3 C, the coldest it has been on this date since we began collecting records.

Despite the warmer temperatures, rain is also in the forecast.
There is a 60 per cent chance of showers on both Saturday and Sunday.
