Environment Canada has lifted heat warnings for Quebec, Atlantic Canada, and most of Ontario, including Toronto and Ottawa, where temperatures have dipped below 30 degrees Celsius. However, heat warnings remain in effect for southwestern Ontario, where the weather agency warns that dangerously hot and humid conditions could persist into next week. In this region, temperatures around 27 degrees and high humidity will make it feel like 30 to 36 degrees, with a chance of showers and thunderstorms. Montreal expects temperatures above 20 degrees before cooling down with three days of rain. Halifax and Fredericton will see temperatures drop over the weekend, reaching 10 degrees on Sunday.

Areas in southern Ontario, Quebec, and Manitoba have seen the warnings lifted as a cooler air mass moves in. However, some regions in Saskatchewan and Alberta remain under heat warnings. Environment Canada continues to monitor the situation closely and urges residents to stay hydrated and take precautions during hot weather. The heat wave has led to several hospitalizations and even deaths across the country. In particular, vulnerable populations such as the elderly, young children, and those with chronic health conditions are at an increased risk. Health officials remind the public to seek shade, drink plenty of fluids, and avoid strenuous activity during the hottest hours of the day. Air-conditioned places, such as shopping malls or libraries, can provide refuge from the heat. While the heat warnings have been lifted in some areas, residents are advised to remain cautious and monitor their local weather forecasts for updates. The summer months can still bring hot and humid conditions, and it’s important to take necessary precautions to stay safe and healthy.
