Port Alberni, British Columbia, Canada Severe Weather Alertstar_ratehome

An prolonged period of above seasonal temperatures

Remarks: 
Temperatures continue to remain elevated for Inland Vancouver Island until the end of the week. However, cooler temperatures overnight will give some relief from the heat. A gradual cooling trend is expected to begin this weekend.

Consider rescheduling outdoor activities to the morning or evening hours when temperatures are cooler.

Watch for the effects of heat illness: heavy sweating, rash, cramps, fainting, high body temperature and the worsening of some health conditions. 

Never leave susceptible people, particularly children, or pets inside a parked vehicle. 

If you are in an overheated area, seek a cool place such as a tree-shaded area, splash pad, misting station, or air-conditioned spot like a public building.
