Heat warning in GTA expected to end Tuesday night: Environment Canada

Social Sharing A heat warning covering much of the Greater Toronto Area is expected to end on Tuesday night, Environment Canada said. Daytime high temperatures are expected between 31 and 32 C, the federal weather agency said in a statement Tuesday morning. With humidity, temperatures may feel like between 38 to 42 C. "Confidence has increased that cooler temperatures will arrive on Wednesday, bringing an end to the heat event," Environment Canada said. The warning is in effect for the following areas: Toronto, Vaughan, Richmond Hill, Markham, Mississauga, Brampton, Durham Region, Newmarket, Georgina, northern York Region, Oakville, Halton Hills and Milton. Watch for symptoms of heat stroke Environment Canada is advising people to limit exposure to sun and heat by planning activities during the coolest parts of the day, as well as wearing a wide-brimmed hat and lightweight, light-coloured, loose fitting clothing. People are advised to watch for symptoms of heat stroke, which is a medical emergency, in themselves and others. Symptoms can include red and hot skin, dizziness, nausea, confusion and change in consciousness. "While you wait for medical attention, try to cool the person by moving them to a cool place, removing extra clothing, applying cold water or ice packs around the body," Environment Canada said in Tuesday's warning. The weather agency also advised people to drink water often, even before feeling thirsty, and close blinds and open windows if the outside is cooler than inside. "If your living space is hot, move to a cool public space such as a cooling centre, community centre, library or shaded park," the heat warning says. People are also advised to check in regularly on those at greater risk of heat illness, including the elderly and those living alone. Signs of heat exhaustion may include headache, nausea, dizziness, thirst, dark urine and intense fatigue. If you experience these symptoms, Environment Canada advises stopping your activity and drinking water.
