Humidex values reaching 40 in the afternoon are expected for the next 2 days.
Daily highs between 30 and 34 C followed by overnight lows near 20 C are expected. Humidex values will reach 40 in the afternoon on Tuesday and Wednesday. The heat and humidity will begin to ease on Thursday.
During high heat events, your health and the health of your family and friends can deteriorate rapidly.
The Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux du Québec, in co-operation with Environment and Climate Change Canada, recommends that you protect yourself from the effects of heat by taking the following actions:
Drink 6 to 8 glasses of water per day even before feeling thirsty. As appropriate, follow your physician's instructions regarding the amount of fluid to drink; Avoid alcoholic beverages or caffeine; If you can, spend at least 2 hours a day in an air-conditioned or cool place; Take at least one cool shower or bath per day, or cool your skin several times per day with a wet towel; Limit physical activity; Wear light clothes.
Be sure to: Never leave a child or a baby alone in a vehicle or a poorly ventilated room, even for a few minutes; Check on and be ready to help your loved ones, especially those who are functionally dependent, disabled, mentally ill or living alone.
Remember that heat can also affect the health of pets.
If you have any questions regarding your health, call Info-Santé by dialing 8-1-1 or ask a health care provider. In case of emergency, call 9-1-1.
For more information, visit the Portail santé mieux-être of the gouvernement du Québec at https://www.sante.gouv.qc.ca/en.
Extreme heat can affect everyone’s health.
The health risks are greater for older adults, infants and young children, pregnant people, people with physical and/or mental illnesses, and people with disabilities or mobility issues.
Watch for the effects of heat illness: swelling, rash, cramps, fainting, heat exhaustion, heat stroke and the worsening of some health conditions.

Reduce your heat risk. Schedule outdoor activities during the coolest parts of the day.
A prolonged heat event continues today. Dangerously hot and humid conditions are expected through most of the week.
Daytime highs through much of the week are expected to be 30 to 35 degrees Celsius with humidex values of 40 to 45. There will be little relief through the overnight as lows are expected to be 18 to 23 degrees Celsius with humidex values of 26 to 30. Temperatures and humidex values may be several degrees cooler near the shores of the Great Lakes.
Hot and humid air can also bring deteriorating air quality and can result in the Air Quality Health Index approaching the high risk category.
Extreme heat can affect everyone's health.
The health risks are greater for older adults, infants and young children, pregnant people, people with physical and/or mental illnesses, and people with disabilities or mobility issues.
Never leave people, particularly children, or pets inside a parked vehicle.
Watch for the effects of heat illness: swelling, rash, cramps, fainting, heat exhaustion, heat stroke and the worsening of some health conditions.
Heat stroke is a medical emergency! Call 911 or your local emergency number immediately if you or someone you are caring for has a high body temperature and is confused, has stopped sweating or becomes unconscious.
While waiting for help, cool the person right away: move them to a cool place, apply cold water to large areas of the skin and fan the person as much as possible.

Un long épisode de chaleur continue aujourd'hui. On prévoit du temps dangereusement chaud et humide pendant la majeure partie de la semaine.
Les maximums diurnes pendant une bonne partie de la semaine devraient atteindre de 30 à 35 degrés Celsius et l'indice humidex, de 40 à 45. Il y aura peu de répit au cours de la nuit, puisqu'on prévoit des minimums nocturnes de 18 à 23 degrés Celsius avec un indice humidex de 26 à 30. Les températures et l'indice humidex pourraient être moins élevés près des rives des Grands Lacs.
L'air très chaud et humide peut aussi occasionner une détérioration de la qualité de l'air et faire en sorte que la cote air santé approche de la catégorie de risque élevé.
La chaleur extrême peut affecter la santé de tout le monde.
Les risques pour la santé sont plus grands pour les personnes âgées, les nourrissons et les jeunes enfants, les personnes enceintes, les personnes souffrant de maladies physiques ou mentales, et celles ayant un handicap ou des problèmes de mobilité.
Ne laissez jamais des personnes, surtout pas des enfants, ni des animaux dans un véhicule stationné.
Surveillez les symptômes des maladies liées à la chaleur : enflure, éruptions cutanées, crampes, évanouissement, épuisement lié à la chaleur, coup de chaleur et aggravation de certains problèmes de santé.
Un coup de chaleur est une urgence médicale! Appelez immédiatement le 911 ou votre numéro d'urgence local si vous vous occupez d'une personne dont la température corporelle est élevée et qui est confuse, qui a cessé de transpirer ou qui devient inconsciente.
En attendant de l aide, rafraîchissez la personne sur-le-champ en la déplaçant vers un endroit frais, en appliquant de l eau froide sur de grandes surfaces de sa peau et en l éventant autant que possible.
Veuillez continuer à surveiller les alertes et les prévisions émises par Environnement Canada. Pour signaler du temps violent, envoyez un courriel à [email protected] ou publiez un gazouillis en utilisant le mot-clic #ONMeteo.
