A look at Sunday’s Edmonton weather by Environment Canada. …You feel like Pig-Pen, smell like Smokey Bear, wonder if maybe you are becoming a dragon, puffs of smoke infiltrating your snout, finally putting those filtering nose hairs to a bit of good use. You just can’t seem to get clean in this suffocating cloak of wildfire smoke during an extended heat wave. You feel oily. Sputtering. Machine like. The widespread smoke from northern Alberta and B.C.’s burning interior that’s triggered an air quality advisory alongside a heat warning will cling to the Edmonton region through Monday. Sunday’s air quality health index remains locked at 10+ or ‘very high risk,’ where activity outside should be avoided. The mercury will climb to 32 C, reaching for 33 C Monday before the smoke clears. And then more relief with a big heat drop to 23 C expected Thursday with rains to stretch into the weekend. Hallelujah. That’s how nature works.
