As temperatures continue to soar in Winnipeg, many are wondering just how long this heatwave will last. To get a better understanding of the forecast, we turn to our expert meteorologist, Colleen Bready.
According to Bready, the current heatwave is expected to last for at least another week. She explains that a high-pressure system is currently sitting over the region, bringing in hot and dry air from the south. This system is expected to remain in place for the next few days, keeping temperatures well above seasonal averages.
Bready also notes that the humidity levels will remain high, making the heat feel even more intense. She advises residents to stay hydrated and take precautions when spending time outdoors.
But when can we expect some relief from this scorching heat? Bready says that a cold front is expected to move in by the end of next week, bringing with it cooler temperatures and a chance of showers. However, she cautions that this is still a week away and the forecast could change.
In the meantime, Bready reminds us to take care of ourselves and our loved ones during this heatwave. She also urges everyone to check on vulnerable individuals, such as the elderly and those with health conditions, who may be more susceptible to the effects of extreme heat.
So, while the heat may be uncomfortable, it is important to remember that it is a natural part of summer and to take necessary precautions to stay safe. And as always, we will continue to keep you updated on the latest weather developments. Stay cool, Winnipeg.
