Toronto, ON (AHN) - An extreme heat alert has been issued for Toronto and its surrounding GTA cities with temperatures hitting 94 degrees Fahrenheit. Factor in humidity and it felt like 105 degrees Fahrenheit.

Tuesday was the hottest day of the year and kicked air conditioners and the power supply into overdrive. A power blackout did hit the downtown core this evening around 6 p.m. but officials are not saying if it was caused by the increased power demand.

Weather forecasters predict Wednesday temperatures to soar just as high with relief from the weather coming on Thursday with a potentially severe thunderstorm.
