The "Yellow" warning is in effect until Saturday morning

Environment Canada has issued an extreme cold warning as a hazardous arctic air mass arrives tonight.

Residents should prepare for dangerously low temperatures, with wind chill values projected to reach between minus 35 and minus 40 through Saturday morning.

Public health authorities emphasize that extreme cold poses a significant risk to all individuals. Frostbite can occur within minutes on exposed skin; therefore, full protective clothing is essential. Residents are urged to monitor for symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest pain, and numbness.

Please ensure the safety of vulnerable neighbors and bring all pets indoors. For those working outside, frequent warm-up breaks are mandatory under these conditions.
