Is Torontohenge covered by cloudy skies? Here you can see it

“Thursday will be cloudy and breezy, with wet snow falling in the afternoon and ending in the evening,” Weather Network Senior Meteorologist Doug Gillham said. “Most of the region could see 5 to 10 cm of snow, but less snow is expected in the Niagara region and near Lake Ontario.”

Where can you see?_

The best downtown locations to view Torontohenge are along Wellington Street W, King Street W, Adelaide Street W and Richmond Street W. King Street W, off Roy Thomson Hall, is particularly good. To the north, Bloor Street W, near the intersection with Yonge Street, is also a great location.

Each of these roads is straight, flanked by high-rise buildings, and offers a relatively unobstructed view of the western horizon. Any similar street will produce the desired result, however.

How does that happen?

The position of the Sun in the sky changes throughout the year. At the summer solstice it is highest in our northern sky, and every day it gets lower and lower until it reaches the winter solstice. Then, the process reverses as the sun's path climbs higher and higher each day until we reach the summer solstice again.

This change in the angle of the sun and its effect on the intensity of sunlight as it reaches the earth is what creates our four seasons.
