We’re in for a scorcher in Windsor this weekend
Viewer submitted photo (Source: Mark Hewer)
We’ve got some extremely hot weather on tap for this weekend in Windsor, with a heat warning in effect for the region.
In addition to sky-high temperatures, many beaches in the area aren’t safe for swimming due to heavy rainfall this week – if you’re looking to stay cool, you’re definitely in for a challenge.
A couple of things to keep in mind when there’s a heat warning in effect.
- Never leave pets or children in hot cars
- Keep strenuous outdoor work to a minimum, but if necessary drink lots of fluids
- Keep an eye out for signs of heat stroke: headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, confusion are some early warning signs.
Today is going to be a beautiful day – sunny, although we will see some fog patches, those will dissipate in the morning. High 31 degrees, feeling like 38 with humidex. UV index 9 or very high – make sure you don’t forget your sunscreen today!
Tonight – Clear skies, wind becoming southwest 20 km/h gusting to 40 before morning. Low 18 overnight.
Tomorrow - A mix of sun and cloud, 40 per cent chance of showers. High 31.
Monday - A mix of sun and cloud, High 31.
