Manitoba Heat Wave Warning | Winnipeg News

Manitoba’s southern region is bracing for a brutal heat wave with daytime highs hitting 35-37°C and humidity making it feel like 45°C — plus, UV levels are dangerously high. This officially qualifies as a heat wave, with temperatures staying above 32°C for two consecutive days and not dipping below 16°C at night. Authorities are urging caution, especially at events like the Winnipeg Folk Festival, and warn that heat stroke — marked by confusion, loss of consciousness, or hot, dry skin — is a life-threatening emergency. If you spot someone at risk, call 911 immediately, move them to a cool spot, apply cold water, and fan them. Relief is on the way, with temperatures expected to drop into the high 20s by mid-next week — but for now, stay hydrated and stay safe.
