It’s the last long weekend of the summer (don’t shoot the messenger). That means many of us will be heading outdoors. So what can you expect weather-wise?
It pretty much comes down to this: in the east, pack the sunscreen. In the west, pack an umbrella.
Halifax
Haligonians will see a lovely long weekend.
Temperatures will be well above normal, with a high around 25 C Saturday with some cloud. On Sunday and Monday, the mercury will climb to 29 C with sunny skies.
Montreal
You’d better remember to apply and reapply the sunscreen if you’re heading outdoors.
Saturday through to Monday, temperatures will be around 30 C with nothing but sunshine forecast. Monday there is the chance of some clouds.
But it’s the humidity that’ll do you in, with humidex values reaching close to 40 C on Sunday and Monday.
Toronto
From Saturday through to Monday the mercury will hover near 30 C, with just a few clouds. And better news: there is no rain in sight.
But once again, that humidity will be a killer with humidex values near 40 C.

Sorry, folks.
The weather over the long weekend isn’t going to be pretty for either of the cities.
Temperatures will be about 5 C below the seasonal daytime highs, rising to only about 15 C. On Monday, it’s going to be downright chilly with a daytime high of only 11 C.
And there’s more bad news: it’s going to be a wet one, with rain expected from Saturday through to Monday.
Calgary
After some enjoyable weather for the start of September, the weather has certainly begun to take a turn.
Saturday and Sunday are going to be just as chilly as Friday. On Saturday, Calgarians will be lucky if they see double digits, with a daytime high of just 9 C forecast with a chilly low of just 4 C. Hey, at least snow isn’t in the forecast.
Good news for Monday, though: The rain moves out and the temperature rises to 15 C.
