| Brief Description | HEAT WARNING | |
| Detailed Description | 11:01 AM ADT Thursday 20 June 2024 Heat Warning in effect for: Guysborough County A period of very warm and humid weather continues. Time span: western Nova Scotia through Friday. Remainder of Nova Scotia through today. Maximum temperature today: 29 to 34 degrees Celsius (inland Humidex 37 to 43) Minimum temperature tonight: 18 to 21 degrees Celsius. Maximum temperature Friday (western Nova Scotia): 28 to 30 degrees Celcius (inland Humidex 31 to 36) Locations: Nova Scotia. Remarks: These very warm conditions are expected to continue into Friday for parts of western Nova Scotia. Nighttime lows are forecast to remain fairly warm, limiting overnight cooling. Some relief may be found in communities located very close to the water. Drink plenty of water regularly, even before you feel thirsty to decrease your risk of dehydration. Thirst is not a good indicator of dehydration. Watch for early signs of heat illness - feeling unwell, fatigue, thirst, headache - all these can rapidly evolve into life-threatening emergencies. Move to a cooler environment immediately, such as a shaded or air-conditioned space. Heat stroke is a medical emergency! Call 911 or your local emergency number immediately if you or someone you are caring for has a high body temperature and is either confused, has stopped sweating or becomes unconscious. While waiting for help, cool the person right away: move them to a cool place, apply cold water to large areas of the skin and fan the person as much as possible. Never leave people, particularly children, or pets inside a parked vehicle. All workers should take regularly scheduled breaks in a cool or shaded space. Heat warnings are issued when very high temperature or humidity conditions are expected to pose an elevated risk of heat illnesses, such as heat stroke or heat exhaustion.
