Environment Canada has issued warnings for a second day for parts of the province from Sudbury to Ottawa and south-west to Windsor, with temperatures expected to reach or exceed 30C and reach the upper thirty when combined with humidity.

In northern Ontario, heat warnings are in place in and around Greater Sudbury and North Bay – West Nipissing.

Most of southern Ontario is also under a heat warning, with some areas including Barrie, London and Parry Sound also subject to severe thunderstorm watches.

Environment Canada says tonight’s overnight low of 20C will bring little relief from the heat.

The weather agency says parts of southern Ontario could see the heat persist for another four days, although many will see some relief by Thursday.
