CONTEST RULES
Weather Guarantee

How it works
Every morning at 6:21 a.m. (EDT), 680News will announce the guaranteed high temperature for that day. If the daily high, as registered at Toronto Pearson International Airport from Environment Canada’s daily weather web page, is off by more than three degrees Celsius, (using whole numbers only, with no fractions) 680News will be deemed not to have made its guarantee and an entrant's name will be drawn. Each weekday at 6:22 a.m. (EDT), 680News will announce whether it made its guarantee the previous day. If the actual temperature reached the previous day (Friday's, Saturday's and Sunday's temperature will be announced on Mondays) was off by more than three degrees Celsius, using whole number sonly (with no fractions) 680News will select, at random, an entrant from those submitted, and that entrant will be eligible to receive that day's jackpot. Each jackpot will start at one thousand dollars ($1,000) and will increase by one hundred dollars ($100) each day that 680News meets its weather guarantee. The selected entrant's name will be repeated at 7:22 a.m (EDT).
