Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 51430, member: 636"] Toronto residents swelter under another scorching heat blast as temperatures climb toward dangerous levels. Federal weather officials slapped the city with a fresh heat warning Friday morning after thermometers started climbing past comfortable ranges. The mercury will spike between 29 and 32 degrees Celsius while the humidex makes it feel like a brutal 40 degrees. Environment Canada predicts the miserable conditions will torture southern Ontario for up to seven straight days. Saturday promises to deliver the most punishing heat of the entire stretch. The weather agency warns that humid air will blanket the region and make breathing difficult for vulnerable residents. Officials expect the oppressive conditions to grip the area until Thursday when shifting weather patterns finally bring relief. Toronto has already endured two separate heat waves during the summer months. The previous heat alert lifted just Sunday night before the latest round of sweltering weather moved back into the region. Environment Canada urges city dwellers to take serious precautions against the extreme temperatures that can cause heat exhaustion and other health problems. The federal department emphasizes that prolonged exposure to such intense heat poses real dangers to human health. Residents should seek air conditioning, drink plenty of water, and check on elderly neighbors during the extended hot spell. The warning covers the entire Greater Toronto Area where millions of people face the same oppressive conditions. Weather experts say the multi-day heat event will test the limits of human endurance across southern Ontario. [/QUOTE]
