Quebec health officials say there are now at least 54 reported deaths that have been linked to a heat wave that blanketed the province over the last few days.
Twenty-eight of those deaths are in Montreal.
Public health director Horacio Arruda pointed out most of those who died were members of vulnerable communities, such as people who lived alone or lived with chronic or mental illness.
They were mostly men aged between 53 and 85; none of them had air conditioning in their homes.
“If you’re alone at home, don’t stay alone,” insisted Social Services Minister Lucie Charlebois.
Montrealers should have some relief Friday and Saturday, with expected highs of 24C and 28C respectively, before the temperature rises again slightly on Sunday.
“It will be hot, but it won’t be excessively humid,” explained Serge Mainville, with Environment Canada, noting heat warnings have been lifted for the next few days.

These are normal temps down south.
