Edmonton and its surrounding areas are in for a hot and potentially stormy day, according to meteorologist Josh Classen’s forecast.
Temperatures are expected to reach near-record highs, with a high of 32 degrees Celsius and a low of 18 degrees Celsius. This is well above the seasonal average for this time of year.
In addition to the heat, there is also a risk of thunderstorms in the forecast. These storms could bring heavy rain, strong winds, and even hail to the region. Residents are advised to stay alert and take necessary precautions.
This hot and stormy weather is due to a high-pressure system moving into the area, bringing with it warm air and instability. As the system moves eastward, it will create a clash between warm and cool air, leading to the potential for thunderstorms.
While the heat and storms may be uncomfortable for some, it is important to remember to stay hydrated and seek shelter if necessary. It is also a good idea to secure any loose objects outside to prevent damage from strong winds.
As always, it is important to stay informed and up-to-date on the weather forecast. Be sure to check in with local news sources for any updates or changes to the forecast.
Stay safe and enjoy the warm weather, Edmonton. But don’t forget to keep an eye on the sky for any potential storms.
