Environment Canada says young children, pregnant women, older adults, people with chronic illnesses and people working or exercising outdoors are at greater risk.
During a heat wave, it’s important to stay hydrated and check in on older loved ones and neighbours. Outdoor workers should take breaks from the heat.
People should also monitor themselves for signs of heat illness, according to the weather agency. This includes extreme thirst, dizziness, nausea, vomiting and rapid breathing and heartbeat.
