unable to covert date

Hi

The table below I Get it from Web --> https://www.theweathernetwork.com/ca/14-day-weather-trend/ontario/toronto

 

I cleaned the table and kept Day, Date, High Temperture, Low Temperture columns. Power Query is showing the date column is Text (ABC), when I tried to change to Date, I got error messages. Some date like 

05/26

05/27

wont covert to date but date like

06/01

06/02

will covert to date no problem.

Now I am thinking that is because of my computer date format is dd/mm/yyyy.

How can I fix that without change my computer date format. Thank you very much.
