Here's how hot it will be in Barrie on Wednesday
Wednesday is the fourth day of June, and it is finally starting to feel like it. Environment Canada is forecasting a humidex above 30 degrees on Wednesday and hazy skies due to smoke from the northwestern wildfires. According to the weather agency, Barrie's temperatures will reach a high of 28 degrees with a humidex of 33 and a 'very high' UV index of eight. Their 'normal' June 4 high for the city is 22 degrees. Environmental Canada is also forecasting an air quality risk of five out of ten for Barrie, which they consider to be a 'moderate' risk. Hazy skies from wildfire smoke are expected to continue, which the weather agency says may obscure the sky's visibility and clarity. No official alerts are in effect. Possible showers with the risk of a thunderstorm are in the forecast for Wednesday afternoon and evening.

Expect another stretch of warm weather with highs of 30 C by Monday
A strong ridge of high pressure situated in the Pacific basin will become the main weather-maker for B.C. and Alberta over the next week. Starting on Wednesday, daytime high will gradually increase, peaking at around 30 C by early next week. Conditions are expected to be mostly stable by the weekend, with very little precipitation forecast, which will enhance wildfire behaviour. Expect another stretch of warm weather with highs of 30 C by Monday Westerly flow across the Prairies is pushing wildfire smoke east all the way into Quebec, while southern Alberta remains mostly unaffected by poor air quality for now. There is a slight chance of light and scattered rain on Wednesday and again on Friday in Calgary, but accumulations should be minimal.
