Home opener 04/04... Bundle Up!
I just read the average temp on April 4 is about 8 degrees. The way this winter has looked I can definately see it being a lot colder than that, and I wouldnt be surprised if it was still snowing by then! That would be a site to see, kinda like the Blue Jays home opener back in the 70's.
Welcome to Canada!
I think it this year it will get warmer earlier. I am no weather forecaster, but then again those fools always get things wrong. Just my 2 cents.
I think 12 degrees that day...but windy
Early April weather is a bit of a wildcard. I could see the game-time high being anywhere between +20 and -5, depending on what airmass we're getting hit with. As much as I'd like to freeze the opposition, I'm hoping for a warmer season opener.
Farmers almanac says the weather is going to be crap
Winter will be slightly milder and noticeably drier than normal, with below-normal snowfall, except in southwest Ontario. The coldest temperatures will occur in mid-December, mid-January, and mid-February. The heaviest snows will fall in early and late December, mid- and late January, and mid-March.
April and May will be slightly warmer and wetter than normal.
Summer will be cooler and drier than normal, with the hottest temperatures in mid- to late June and early and mid-July. September and October will be cooler and drier than normal.
it'll be just like england....
I'll be wearing my coat of booze
Any chance this keeps the casuals out?

It'll be warmer than Stoke was on Saturday - book it.
who cares....put a coat on
Are we going to have our new scarfs for the home opener?
maybe they'll start serving up Bovril at BMO if it's cold enough.
Let it snow!
Let it snow!
Let it snow!
Won't be streamers being thrown on corner kicks
Might be the first match ever where hot drinks (coffee?) will out-sell beer.
MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto
i need to buy some of those heating packs
Just gives me a chance to wear some of my TFC jackets and sweaters I never get to wear to the summer games.
Hehe, I was thinking the same thing. I think I've slept in my TFC hoodie before.
Haha, I use my training pants as pajamas sometimes, most comfortable peice of clothing I own
Yipee! I might actually get to wear my 'Carver coat' to a match without dying of heatstroke.
MIght have to bring out the snow ball!
Wont be anything like we seen in Estonia with the CMNT.
8 degrees sounds fucking lovely to me right now.I just read the average temp on April 4 is about 8 degrees.

Welcome to Canada!
It also says January was 4 degrees above average ... ha!
Who cares!
I plan on chanting, singing and yelling the full 90mins. Keep moving and you'll be fine!
That being said, I'm glad I'll be wearing my luchador mask and scarf will probably now come in handy in keeping me warm.
8 degrees? Sounds like balmy spring weather to me
Of course Toronto is farther south than up here in the valley in the woods.
As long as it's not raining I am good. Being a bit cold is one thing but cold AND wet sucks the big one.
Wiarton saw his shadow...enough said!
Never listen to a willie.
Hell I'd settle for 8 degrees fahrenheit right now, it was -2 deg f when I left my house this morning.8 degrees sounds fucking lovely to me right now.
