Toronto just experienced the longest stretch of days at or above 18 degrees C in over 100 years, the latest troubling evidence that the planet is over humans and actively trying to kill us all off.

Ontario software designer and weather historian Rolf Campbell tracked the lengthy period of warm weather, which stands as the third-longest since record-keeping began in 1840, and threatens to claim the streak for the longest such stretch in Toronto history.

Today is Toronto's 123rd consecutive day with maximum temperature ≥ 18°C. This is the longest run in more than 100 years, since Oct 2nd, 1921.

The stretch spanning from May 26 through September 25 saw 123 consecutive days with maximum temperatures at or exceeding 18 C.

In addition to being the third-longest in Toronto history, that span represents the longest period of extended warm weather for the city in more than a century.

Almost exactly four months of warm weather fell just seven days shy of the second-place record set from May-October 1921, and 13 days short of the 136-day record set back in 1908.

And the streak is set to continue as Toronto is still in for an uncharacteristically warm close to September and start of October.

Highs exceeding 18 C are predicted to keep the streak alive for another week, and will likely overtake the second-place streak established in 1921.

Temperatures in the mid-20s will persist into the first week of October, which means you might have to wait a few more weeks for the satisfying crunch of fallen leaves under your shoes to accompany your pumpkin spice beverages.

Locals should enjoy these mild temperatures while they last, as Toronto can expect to experience a particularly brutal winter in the months to follow.

The Farmers' Almanac predicts a frigid winter with much precipitation across the country, including "bitter cold and stormy" conditions in Ontario.

For what it's worth, the Almanac also predicted a "big chill down, wet and snowy" fall season in the province, which has yet to materialize.
