Heat warning issued for Grande Prairie area

Aug 12, 2021 | 4:46 PM

Environment Canada has issued a heat warning for the Grande Prairie-Beaverlodge-Valleyview forecast area.

The warning comes as the weather office says daytime highs around 30 degrees combined with overnight lows of 14 degrees are expected over the weekend before cooler temperatures are expected to move over the province Monday.

The heat warning is also in effect for the Peace River- Fairview-High Prairie-Manning forecast area.

The public is reminded to take precautions to protect themselves and others from the heat, like rescheduling outdoor activities to cooler hours of the day and taking frequent breaks from the heat.

Heat warnings are issued when very high temperatures are expected to pose an elevated risk of heat illnesses, such as heat stroke or heat exhaustion.
