Starting the Week With a Heat Warning

The hot temperatures continue into the week, with little to no relief in sight until the weekend.

OXFORD / BRANT - A prolonged period of hot weather will continue today and into this week.

Daytime high temperatures in excess of 30 degrees Celsius, with humidex values in the high thirties to low forties, are expected for this week. Overnight lows near 20 degrees Celsius are also expected through this period, providing little relief from the heat.

A slightly cooler airmass may move into the area this weekend, however there is considerable uncertainty.

Hot and humid air can also bring deteriorating air quality and can result in the Air Quality Health Index approaching the high risk category.

A reminder to never leave people or pets inside a parked vehicle.

Extreme heat affects everyone.

The risks are greater for young children, pregnant women, older adults, people with chronic illnesses and people working or exercising outdoors.

Watch for the effects of heat illness: swelling, rash, cramps, fainting, heat exhaustion, heat stroke and the worsening of some health conditions.
