286.1My experience last June, hot, hot, hotTARKIN::VAILLANCOURTMon Apr 23 1990 16:0810
    Hi Paul,
    
    I was in Montreal last June, and will be returning again this June,
    also on the 22.  At that time, it was 90 to 100 every day, and
    extremely humid.  However, they told me that was very unusual and
    that it's usually about 20 degrees cooler than that at that time.
    
    Hope someone else can give you some better info!

    Ontario and Quebec are generally pretty hot in June...expect
    80's to 90's but could be more like in 60's.  These places have
    extreme HUMIDITY.
    
    Atlantic Canada (Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Newfoundland,
    and Nova Scotia) will be foggy on the coast, 70's inland.
    
    Western Canada...don't know.

    	Northern interior: 25-30
    
    These are all Celsius degrees, of course. The Interior temperatures are

    To the last reply,
    
    Hot, Hot and stinking Hot.
    
    Seriously though, There are usually only two to three weeks of the
    summer June, July, August timeframe that the temperature is unbearable.
    
    Humidity in the summer runs high and it this factor that makes one
    uncomfortable.
    
    Welcome to Canada, and a warm (Ha, Ha) welcome to Ottawa.
    
    Current temperatures across Canada from left to right are,
    
    Very Warm, Warm, Hot, Hot, Very Warm, Very Warm, Warm, Warm, Cooler,
    Cool, Cool and Cold.
    
    Stay tuned for tommorrws weather report.
    
    Oh, by the way, that was West to East.
    
    Smile and invest in the Grand Canal.

    Ottawa in August is usually humidity free...it's cooler and maybe
    rainier in August.  June and July are the humidity months.  September
    is usually very fair, cool in the evenings (maybe a sweater), although
    suntanning in the day is possible.

286.7It's going to be a hot year.KAOM25::TOMKINSThis MIND left BLANK INTENTIONALLYThu Apr 26 1990 08:2910
    Yesterday the Temp. here in Ottawa, was 21. Today we expect 27 and
    by Saturday we expect 31.
    
    Looks like the greenhouse effect has started showing itself in earnest.
    These are the most unseasonable temperature I have in recent memory
    (10 years).
    
    Just thought you'd like an update.

    Calgary is being snowed upon - I guess the Flames can't even get
    on the golf course.  Glad I live further north!

    re:.8  
    
    >Calgary is being snowed upon
    
    I remember a phrase from a few years ago "Let the Eastern bastards
    freeze"   :-)
    
    Unfortunately Ottawa's forecast is 30C today, the third day in a
    row a record high will be reached.
    
    Freeze ha ha
