Aug 14 2023, 11:04 pm

Vancouver is in the middle of what is expected to be a week-long heat wave, and it’s hotter than in LA and other spots around the globe.

As of 3:30 pm on Monday, Vancouver was seeing a temperature of 24ĖšC, but humidex (or feels like) values of 29ĖšC according to The Weather Network.

While the regular temperature in LA is technically warmer (25ĖšC), it only feels like 25ĖšC, with humidity at the same level as in Vancouver.

That’s not the only hot spot around the globe that Vancouver felt more heat than.

Around the same time on Monday, Mexico City saw temperatures and humidex values of 23ĖšC.

Guatemala, a locale that is no stranger to temperatures reaching 40ĖšC, was seeing temperatures of 25ĖšC, the same as its humidex values.

While not hotter, Honolulu saw a humidex of 31ĖšC, just a couple of degrees warmer than Vancouver.

Despite the wild temperatures in Vancouver on Monday, Tuesday won’t let up and is expected to be even hotter. As of Monday afternoon, The Weather Network forecasts that Vancouver could see humidex values approaching 35ĖšC.

Thankfully, it’s not as hot in Vancouver as in Phoenix, which saw temperatures reach 40ĖšC on Monday afternoon.
