Manitoba is currently under a heat wave, with temperatures steadily rising due to a heat dome caused by a ridge of high pressure. On Tuesday, daytime highs in southern Manitoba, including Winnipeg and Brandon, are expected to reach the mid to upper 20s Celsius. A yellow warning for heat is already in effect for much of southern Saskatchewan, where temperatures are even higher. According to Environment and Climate Change Canada, the warmest air will shift eastward across Manitoba throughout the week. Wednesday will see temperatures again climbing into the upper 20s, but by Thursday and Friday, highs could reach the mid-30s. This extreme heat, combined with warm overnight lows, is likely to prompt further heat warnings. Residents are advised to take precautions during this unseasonably warm weather. Meanwhile, northwestern Ontario will experience sunny conditions with highs in the mid-20s, while Churchill will remain cooler at just 5°C due to north winds.
