Toronto is entering its third day of a multi-day heat event with a max temperature of 32°C. Including humidity, the temps could reach a sweat-through-your-shirt 40°C.
Fortunately, Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) says conditions will begin to improve Thursday afternoon with the passage of a cold front.
A weather warning also remains in Montreal with humidex values near 40.
ECCC says Montrealers will barely get a break from the sweat at night with minimum temperatures of 20°C.
