Temperatures in Greater Victoria could hit 37 C on Monday, with similar temperatures predicted across much of the Island. Armel Castellan, a warning preparedness meteorologist with Environment Canada, described the incoming weather as “the main event” after a dry May. “It’s been so dry. We’ve had record-breaking dryness for the Interior and south coast,” he said. “Now, we’re talking about dangerous conditions. “It might even be looking at all-time records for some locations.” The incoming heat is being treated as a public-health threat, with infants and young children, older adults and people with chronic conditions facing the greatest risks.
