We are in for some hot and humid weather over the next couple of days.
Environment Canada has issued a heat warning for central and eastern New Brunswick, including:
- Acadian Peninsula
- Bathurst and Chaleur region
- Fredericton and southern York County
- Grand Lake and Queens County
- Kent County
- Kouchibouguac National Park
- Miramichi and area
- Moncton and southeast New Brunswick
- Oromocto and Sunbury County
- St. Stephen and northern Charlotte County
- Stanley – Doaktown – Blackville area
- Sussex – Kennebecasis Valley and Kings County
- Woodstock and Carleton County
Temperatures are expected to reach 31°C on Monday and Tuesday, but the humidity will make it feel closer to 39 C in some areas.
There will not be much relief at night either, with lows on Monday night expected to be in the upper teens.
It will be a bit cooler if you live or work along the coast.
Environment Canada says you can reduce your heat risk by scheduling outdoor activities during the coolest part of the day.
Never leave anyone in a parked vehicle, particularly children or pets.
