It is about the same, but seems to get more snow.

via September it might desire to finally be cool sufficient to picnic on a sea coast without being baked, quite in direction of the top of the month. Toronto is quite a techniques south, and easily exceedingly heat.

The two source links I posted below will allow you to compare London Ontario and Toronto Ontario in terms of temperature and precipitation (both rain and snow).



Because London and Toronto are less than 200km apart, and are located nearly at the same geographical latitude, their weather patterns are similar most of the time. However, there are exceptions that can't be predicted far in advance.

London is about a 3 hour drive south of Toronto.

So temperatures vary a bit due to distance, but not drastically.



That being said, London is in southern Ontario's 'snow belt region and subject to Lake Effect snowfall in ways that Toronto isn't.

-Prevailing winter winds off Lake Huron pick up moisture and dump it inland.

London's inside that area. Toronto isn't.



Two years ago, London got hammered hard by a good ol' fashioned blizzard:

By comparison, Toronto got just a dusting barely enough to cover the grass:

So which city is better to live in depends on how much you like snow.

Toronto never gets as much snow as snow belt communities like London does.
