Canada is heading into a summer that’s likely to be warmer than usual, with rainfall levels still uncertain across most provinces, according to Environment and Climate Change Canada’s seasonal outlook.
Meteorologist Jennifer Smith said Tuesday that regions including Atlantic Canada, Quebec, Ontario, and northern Manitoba are almost guaranteed—up to 100 per cent in some spots—to experience above-normal temperatures. While heat waves may spike short-term temperatures, Smith noted the long-term trend could also come from frequent warm spells or steady, mild warmth that gradually raises seasonal averages.
