Summary
A brutal heat wave grips southern Quebec and Ontario, compounded by widespread power outages after damaging thunderstorms—over 55,000 homes affected, with downed lines posing serious danger. Hydro-Québec and Hydro One urge caution and emergency reporting, while heat advisories stretch across Atlantic Canada. Temperatures near 31°C with a stifling heat index of 40°C are expected to persist today, but relief is on the horizon: cooler weather and lower humidity are forecast for Saturday, with Montreal enjoying gusty winds today and sunny skies warming to 28°C by weekend. Power restoration remains uncertain, but the worst may be behind us.
