Summary
Winnipeg’s sweltering heat is breaking records—overnight lows hit 27°C, making it dangerously humid and increasing risks of heat exhaustion. With a three-day heat warning in effect, vulnerable residents like seniors and kids without AC are especially at risk. Cooling centers are open, and some events were canceled while others, like Folk Fest, pressed on—with folks soaking hats to stay cool. Meanwhile, mayoral candidates are stepping up, proposing heat-safe rental bylaws, more trees to fight urban heat islands, and expanded cooling access. Extreme heat isn’t just uncomfortable—it’s becoming a defining urban crisis. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
