A break in the humidity in the London area on Thursday

Thursday will be hot and sunny, with a break in the humidity as a drier air mass moves into the region.

"The air mass won't be as humid as we head into Thursday afternoon, it will feel like the upper 20s not the low 30s — so a bit of a break from the higher humidity," said CTV News London meteorologist Julie Atchison.

As we head into the weekend, lots of sunshine in the forecast on Friday with the temperature hitting about 26 C.

A low-pressure system will develop out of the American Midwest into Saturday with showers expected.
