“Get ready to bask in the sunshine after a week of rain, as some provinces are set to experience warm temperatures reaching as high as 45 degrees Celsius. Here’s a breakdown of the upcoming weather conditions that residents can expect.”
### Extreme Heat and Humidity
“A scorching heat wave is expected to hit parts of Ontario, Quebec, and New Brunswick, according to CTV Your Morning’s meteorologist Kelsey McEwen. Temperatures in Ontario could soar up to 35 degrees Celsius, with the humidity making it feel like a sweltering 45 degrees in places like Toronto. Heat warnings have been issued by Environment Canada starting Monday, covering an area from London to Ottawa, stretching up to Sault Ste. Marie and Fort Albany. Residents in the north can anticipate humidex values in the low 40s, while central and northeastern regions may experience humidex levels up to 30. Although overnight temperatures will dip to lows between 17 to 24 degrees, the hot air is expected to move eastward later in the week, prompting a special weather statement for much of southern Quebec by Wednesday. Temperatures in Quebec could reach up to 34 degrees with a humidex of 40, cooling down by Thursday. Central Quebec may also see a risk of thunderstorms on Monday. In New Brunswick, the peak of the heat is predicted for Tuesday and Wednesday, with temperatures reaching as high as 33 degrees and humidex values close to 40.”
### Rainy, Wet Weather Elsewhere
“While some areas brace for extreme heat, Alberta is experiencing below seasonal temperatures, noted McEwen. Rainfall warnings have been issued for parts of northern Manitoba, expecting up to 50 millimetres of rain by Monday morning. Wind warnings are also in effect for areas like Churchill and Gillam, with strong winds reaching nearly 90 km/h in the morning before easing off by the evening. Central and southern Alberta, along with western Saskatchewan, may see a slight chance of thunderstorms with wind gusts nearing 50 km/h and the possibility of small hail.”
In conclusion, while some regions are gearing up for scorching temperatures and humidity, others are experiencing cooler, wet weather conditions. It’s essential for residents to stay informed and prepared for any weather changes to ensure their safety and well-being during this time of fluctuating conditions.”
