Deep freeze: Extreme cold temperatures continue in Toronto

It was a frigid start to the week for Torontonians on Monday as bitterly cold temperatures hung on in the city.

According to Environment Canada, the temperature at Pearson International Airport at 7 a.m. was -21 C, but felt closer to -34 with the wind chill.

The temperature in the region is slowly expected to rise to around -12 C, feeling closer to -20, later today.

The cold has prompted multiple school boards, including the Toronto District School Board and the Toronto Catholic District School Board, to cancel buses today.

Weather-related delays were also reported on GO Transit and on the TTC during the morning rush hour.
