GATINEAU, QC – From making everyday decisions to staying safe during extreme weather, it’s essential that Canadians have convenient, reliable access to weather information. For five years, Canadians have turned to the WeatherCAN application on their mobile devices to get trusted weather information directly from Environment and Climate Change Canada’s meteorologists. Environment and Climate Change Canada will launch a new version of the WeatherCAN app with significant changes that are designed to enhance user experience. With feedback from users, the update will include a brand-new look, improved navigation, and a temperature notification feature. Updates include: Air quality information will appear near the top of each location page. This will give quicker access to essential safety information during wildfire smoke or other air pollution events; and a new temperature notification will allow users to be notified when the temperature, humidex, or windchill reaches certain thresholds of their choosing.
