At noon, Toronto City Centre with a humidex reading of 46.

"Cooled" down at 1.

Lots of rain in Calgary this weekend. A record amount over a 2 day period.

This is the park down my street, for this car the humidity rating is 100%

Sweltering.

One thing about this climate, and location , is it can go from looking like the Arctic to looking like the tropics in the matter of a few months.

Some desert vibes, also

Exactly. Near the water, I'm good with 35C and humidity. In the middle of Shanghai, not so much.

I love this weather, but I just throw on a pair of shorts when I wake up. I also live in the country and have a lake breeze. This humidity is awful when you have to wear socks and shoes and rush around in a city with all kinds of concrete and pavement

High of 31.9 today, first 30 of the year. Every other year we've hit 30 in May, so this is very late.

Super humid, dew point max of 26.2 and humidex of 45.6. The Weather Network predicted 32 with a humidex of 46 for my location, can't get much closer than that.

The last week here where I am in Japan was very hot and humid, highs of 33 to 36 and lows around 25.

Not a single person at work said a positive thing about it. Only complaints.

A hot afternoon is fine, but hot and sticky all night every night is not fun. You always feel wet. Constantly changing under shirts isn't fun, and it makes running or exercise outside unbearable. Not to mention the energy use (and cost) of running AC units all day and night inside.

With dry heat you can actually open the windows in the evening, and cool the house down by morning time to actually feel refreshed for another nice hot day.

Nicko999 · #**7567** Posted **Jun 23, 2025, 2:42 AM**

30C with a humidex of 37 and mainly sunny. Nice warm up for the main event.

Low of 21C (humidex of 28) this morning.

The warmspot were Hamilton and Delhi, ON at 35.3C.

Warmest low was Egbert, ON at 26.4C. We will see if it becomes official. Would be the warmest low in at 3 years in Canada.

Humidex of 47 in Hamilton, ON today. Warmest such in the country since at least 2021.

Dewpoint of 26.8C in Lagoon City, ON right now. Steamy.

Metro, you know too well that Japan does not experience the cold Canadian winter. We're talking about 3 to 4 days like that max. All that complaining for so few days is laughable really. The complaints and bitching should be directed towards the cold rainy days (coldest stretch in 60 years) we had in May.

If the heat was so bad people would not be migrating to warm weather places, it would be the other way around.

I'll be experiencing Japanese summer weather in a couple of weeks. I've heard it's pretty humid, which will be a change from Calgary, where the AC consists of opening the windows at night for that cool dry air.

Actually a lot of Japan (Hokkaido, northwest Honshu, and various mountainous areas) get winters comparable to the southern BC interior, southern Ontario and Nova Scotia (just with a looot more snow) and even where I am, winters here are very comparable to the south cost of BC, so most of Japan is far from being tropical.

I will give you though that a four or five day heat wave can be fun if relief is in sight. Here in Japan I wont be experiencing a fresh morning again likely until October. For me that completely ruins the enjoyment of summer. I like heat, yes, but continually feeling sticky, sweaty, and nasty for months on end? Nope.

Also I think people move more for sun and to escape extreme cold than they do to feel high humidity and extreme heat. Also the fact that these migrations didn't really happen until air conditioning was invented shows that people don't actually like sitting around at 36 degrees with 90% humidity and going to sleep in heat. Moving to a tropical place to spend 80% of your time in air conditioned spaces will always be a bizarre to me.

Last week was 36 with 80% humidity at my place...

It's the nights though that will get you. Never relief.

TownGuy · #**7571** Posted **Jun 23, 2025, 1:31 PM**

I mean most people here have AC so its not like everyone is suffering at night. It's nice wearing shorts and a t-shirt outside 24/7, I'll say that.

1ajs · #**7572** Posted **Jun 23, 2025, 1:37 PM**

17c yesterday east winds and this nasty looking control burn to protect town from it getting into an area of 100 -200yr old trees that come right up to town this burn was 5miles from town

right now is 10c winds to shift from the north this afternoon by evening hard west winds
my cabin is due south from this fire so im real realy nervis

BradFromTO · #**7573** Posted **Jun 23, 2025, 2:36 PM**

It's hot!

TWN has us reaching 37 today, EC 36. I tend to believe EC here just because it's so exceedingly rare for Toronto to crack over 36 for various reasons. Humidex around 45 for EC and 47 for TWN.

If we do reach 37, I think that would be our highest reading since 2012.

Went by the lake in Etobicoke yesterday and it's amazing how much relief it provides, especially this early in the summer. The perceived temperature drop felt like a 10 degree difference, just compared to a few hundred metres in land. Realistically it was more like a 5-6 degree difference, but still

Calgarian · #**7574** Posted **Jun 23, 2025, 3:10 PM**

With all the rain we just had, and more in the forecast, I'm nervous for when it gets hot, lots of fuel for thunderstorms now!

stefanYEG · #**7575** Posted **Jun 23, 2025, 3:15 PM**

I'd trade that heat for our forecast HIGH(!!) of 15 any day. It's been cool, wet, and generally unpleasant the last several days. I spent the weekend camping out at Wabamun Lake and didn't even lay eyes on the lake once, and instead stayed close to the fire. The highs look to be improving for the rest of the week (22-25) starting tomorrow, but it will still be unsettled with clouds and a chance of rain almost every day. All the rain has improved our wildfire situation, but I think most in the province would like to get on with summer any day now.

MonctonRad · #**7576** Posted **Jun 23, 2025, 4:18 PM**

19C and partly cloudy in Moncton at 1 PM. It was supposed to get to 25C this afternoon, but this is now hard to imagine. There is a NE breeze right now, which in Moncton, would be off the Northumberland Strait. This probably explains our underperforming temperature.

32C tomorrow with thunderstorms

SignalHillHiker · #**7577** Posted **Jun 23, 2025, 6:45 PM**

A few spits of rain today, but lawn is turning brown. I can't wait until all the various weeds that don't need mowing consume the grass, but for now, sprinkler has been going for hours

BradFromTO · #**7578** Posted **Jun 23, 2025, 8:35 PM**

Hotter then yesterday - currently 36, but with rel humdity at %38, it's less oppressive feeling than yesterday. Let's see if we end up hitting 37 - would be the first time since 2011

harls · #**7579** Posted **Jun 23, 2025, 8:50 PM**

Low of 25?

Looks like the AC will be working overtime tonight.

Nicko will be on Crescent St. tonight, I am sure.

Yeah, there were some pretty wild snow videos coming out of Japan this past winter (ignore the apocalyptic opening render, why do weather youtubers do that?)
