Warm weather is scheduled to hit the region and that has Environment and Climate Change Canada reminding everyone to stay cool and check on those who live alone. 

Temperatures are expected to hit between the high 20s to low 30s starting on Saturday and last into next week, and the weather network says stay cool and hydrated to avoid heat emergencies.  

“Keep your house cool, block the sun by closing curtains or blinds,” they said.

“Watch for the effects of heat illness; heavy sweating, rash, cramps, fainting, high body temperatures and worsening of some health conditions.” 

They say while having a fan is a good step forward, it won’t help in a heat emergency. 

If you experience a heat emergency, you’re asked to find a cooler space, and if it worsens call 911. 

The hot weather is expected to cover the Kootenay-Boundary region.
