Weather warnings

The sunshine is of course a welcome break from the wet weather we had to endure at the start of the summer. However not everyone is happy about the heat.

Environment Canada has had to issue extreme heat warnings for inland portions of Metro Vancouver, as on Thursday alone, temperatures are expected to reach 35°C in some parts of the city. A campfire ban has also come into effect and owners are being warned to take extra care to ensure that their dogs don’t become dehydrated in the heat.

Environment Canada recommends staying hydrated and staying in air-conditioned buildings while temperatures are that warm.
