Extreme heat
Extreme heat events occur when uncommonly high temperatures are experienced for at least two consecutive days. During extreme heat events, you are at higher risk of heat-related illness.
For current heat advisories in place for the Interior Region, please visit the
Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) website.
Too much heat can be harmful to your health and, in severe cases, can lead to heat stroke (sunstroke), which can be life threatening. Heat stroke is a medical emergency – call 9-1-1 if you or a person you are caring for has high body temperature, confusion and/or is unconscious.
