Atlantic Canada sees more sweltering temperatures, relief expected in Ontario
Cooler air will bring relief from temperatures near 30 C and humidex values close to 40 as the heat wave ends in southern British Columbia, Environment Canada said.
- On Monday, numerous temperature records were broken throughout Atlantic Canada, including Miramichi, N.B., reaching 37.6 C, and La Scie, N.L., achieving a new August high of 31.5 C.
- An atmospheric upper ridge formed over the east coast trapped heat and blocked rain, causing prolonged hot, dry weather and elevated wildfire risk, according to Climenhaga.
- High temperatures are expected to persist in the Maritimes through Wednesday, while southern Ontario and Quebec will remain hot but cooler air will sweep in by Tuesday evening.
- Environment Canada advises limiting outdoor time, drinking water, and watching for early heat exhaustion signs, while heat warnings will end Wednesday as temperatures fall toward seasonal averages.
- Extreme heat’s continuation stresses wildfire and drought concerns, suggesting relief depends on sustained rainfall rather than brief showers to reduce risks and volatility quickly.
