We’ve got our first Heat Warning of the year – Environment Canada has issued a yellow heat warning for Chatham-Kent.

With the humidex, it could feel like 40°C today. The heat is expected to last into Thursday. It may continue Friday into Saturday.

Extreme heat can affect anyone’s health, but some people are at higher risk of heat-related illness.

Check in on older adults, people who live alone, and others who may be vulnerable. Reach out in person or by phone several times a day during periods of extreme heat.

Watch for early signs of heat exhaustion in yourself and others, including heavy sweating, weakness, dizziness, nausea, headache, or fainting. Never leave people, especially children, or pets inside a parked vehicle.

Construction started back in 2018, and while the project has been largely complete since last year, crews have been busy with final testing and preparations.

Officials haven’t officially confirmed either date, and continue to say only that a spring opening is expected.
