Porter Airlines seasonal flights between Toronto’s Billy Bishop Airport and Muskoka Airport near Gravenhurst launches today.

The 20-minute flights will operate on Thursdays and Mondays this weekend until Labour Day. The airline says Monday flights will take place on Tuesday during long weekends.

Porter’s website lists the flights as costing $71 one-way and $115 return

As part of the Muskoka experience, the region’s tourism organization is introducing a shuttle bus service at the airport to deliver passengers to accommodations across the region.

Countries including France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Poland, Belgium and Austria will see record-setting temperatures in the 90’s and even higher.

The southern part of France will peak at 113 degrees on Friday. The average high for late June in Paris is the low 70’s.

Temperatures in Madrid, Spain will top 100 degrees today through Sunday — and there’s little respite in sight. The city will remain in the upper 90s all next week – and that doesn’t include the humidity.

The stifling conditions are being brought on by a storm that’s stalled over the Atlantic Ocean and high pressure over Central and Eastern Europe, which is pulling in hot air from Africa.

Stella Artois just introduced their own version of the red Solo cup; a red chalice. It’s a red plastic cup, but one that’s shaped like a goblet with a red plastic stem.

If you’re interested, you can buy them on Stella Artois’s website. It’s $10 for a six pack or $30 for a 24 pack.
