Cold temps a sign Raptors will take down the Miami Heat, say Torontonians
Hail, flurries and other wintery unmentionables already spotted by many in the GTA
Hello Toronto!
It's a cold one out there today with an unspring-like high of just 7 C. As of noon, it was just 4 C in the city, feeling like 1 C. And making it feel even more like winter, light snow is expected to fall all afternoon.
Some in the Greater Toronto Area have already spotted hail, flurries and other wintery unmentionables.
And many are taking the white stuff as a sign that the Toronto Raptors intend to take down the Miami Heat in their final showdown against the team in the NBA playoffs tonight.
It's so cold in Toronto because we're taking The HEAT down today!<br> -<a href="https://twitter.com/chrisjballTO">@chrisjballTO</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/WeTheNorth?src=hash">#WeTheNorth</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/RTZ?src=hash">#RTZ</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/game7?src=hash">#game7</a>

But if the weather gods are on the Raptors' side, the Miami Heat just might be in trouble.
See even the Gods making sure the weather is Cold in Toronto to freeze the Heat today and then… <a href="https://t.co/bb81xxnPpn">https://t.co/bb81xxnPpn</a>
