Heat Warning in effect for:

Fredericton and Southern York County
Temperatures reaching 32 degrees Celsius are expected.

A much warmer airmass will reach New Brunswick on Thursday and remain in place through Friday and Friday night. Maximum daytime temperatures near 30 degrees are expected on Thursday. On Friday, hot and humid conditions will prevail, with maximum temperatures ranging from 30 to 34 degrees and humidex values between 36 and 39. Minimum temperatures overnight on Thursday and Friday nights will remain near 18 degrees, providing little relief from the heat. Temperatures will remain cooler for coastal communities along the Bay of Fundy due to onshore breezes. Temperatures and humidity levels will fall Saturday as a cold front moves across the province.

Reduce your heat risk. Schedule outdoor activities during the coolest parts of the day.

Never leave people or pets inside a parked vehicle.

Outdoor workers should take regularly scheduled breaks in a cool place.

Heat warnings are issued when very high temperature or humidity conditions are expected to pose an elevated risk of heat illnesses, such as heat stroke or heat exhaustion.
