<div>
A new report predicts Toronto will see drastically more heat waves and rainfall in 2040. The report urges Council to consider these facts to help Toronto prepare for climate change, but City Hall has deferred discussion on it until next year. Some of the report findings:
</div><ul>
<li>
Toronto will see almost 40 days per year with a humidex over 40˚C (current average is 9 per year).</li>
<li>
Heat waves (3+ days of 32˚C) will occur 5 times a year, instead of once every two years.</li>
<li>
We'll see 80% more summer rain in July, 50% more in August.</li>
<li>
Extreme rain events will almost triple in size to 166mm in 24hrs from the current 66 mm.<br>
