Although it won't be as intense as the heat wave that scorched Manitoba not too long ago, this weekend's forecast is calling for hot weather.
Because of this, Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) wants to help you stay safe during extended periods of heat.
ECCC Meteorologist Terri Lang says that the effects of heat are cumulative and that it's important to stay out of the heat as much as possible.
"You can take a day of heat, but when it's a couple [of] days long and the temperatures aren't cooling off overnight, you don't get rested [and] your body can't recover, that's when the effects of heat start to pile up," she added.
According to Lang, people should seek air-conditioned spaces or go to places like pools and spray parks to cool off.
She also said that those who need to get work done outdoors should try to get it done in the morning or in the evening, since morning and evening temperatures are generally lower than afternoon temperatures, and that covering your skin with loose light-coloured clothing can also help.
Terri Lang then stressed that it's very important to stay hydrated and that people should drink as much water as they possibly can.
Furthermore, those without air conditioning in their homes are still able to get some relief from the heat, as well as the humidity.
"Get a bowl of ice and put it in front of a fan and have the fan [blow] on you. That will help. You can also put your feet into cold water or ice water. That will help cool you off," Terri Lang added.
She also said that people could try sleeping in the basement because, since cold air sinks, the lowest part of the house is generally the coolest.
