Environment Canada has issued heat warnings for most of central and southern New Brunswick with temperatures soaring until Thursday evening. With the humidex some areas of the province will feel as hot as 40 C.

“Heat warnings are issued when very high temperature or humidity conditions are expected to pose an elevated risk of heat illnesses, such as heat stroke or heat exhaustion,” the warning states.

Two of the province’s major cities, Fredericton and Moncton, are included in the warning.

CBC meteorologist Tina Simpkin said it’s going to feel “hot and steamy” and encouraged New Brunswickers to take precautions. 

“Just act like it’s a heat warning even if you’re not in it because even with the humidex, most areas are going to feel like in the 30s, if not 40s.”
