Tropical Storm #Dexter showing up on the map this morning; expected to transition to post-tropical while tracking well south of Atlantic Canada. No threat to #NLwx, aside from possible increased winds and waves on the southern Grand Banks later this week. weather.gc.ca/hurricane/

Both the Musgrave Harbour and Chance Harbour wildfires received close to 30 mm of rain, creating more favourable conditions for firefighters to get in and do the hard work on the ground.

The Province provided an update earlier this morning! #nlwx

NOTE: Per hourly data, there was another 34.9°C obs at Badger on Jun 14, 1999. Tmax likely a smidge higher but missing from dataset, so presently not counted officially.

Today's heat more humid though (dew point 18°C, vs -3°C in 1999; Humidex 40 vs 32)#nlwxwx

The 30+°C heat spread across a big chunk of Newfoundland today, while much of Labrador kept baking. 🌡️

The Avalon hasn’t tapped into the warmest of this air mass just yet... but tomorrow’s looking toasty! ☀️ #nlwx

Before entering politics, Long Range Mountains MP Carol Anstey wrote a faith-based memoir that attracted some attention during the federal election campaign. I read the book, and I spoke with Carol Anstey about it. #nlpoli #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Thank you for saying this. You're not alone. I've been freaking out about this for some time now & it astonishes me we're not up in arms about this. In time every person that lives here will be experiencing the effects our our own personal health first hand. #yyc #yeg #abpoli #Wildfire #Climate

Am I the only one who finds it slightly galling that premiers are pitching major projects to an open-eared prime minister right now -- including pipelines -- as a province burns around them and people are forced to evacuate?????

As a result of wildfires which are exacerbated by climate change???

A deeply disconcerting map
Canada is already in it with big fires and evacs in the thousands. The country looks poised to have large fires on the landscape from now until the snows come. That means Canadian resources will be overextended and not available to help others. Also, probably leads to smoke drifting into the US.

@bernicecb.bsky.social Good morning Bernice! A story idea - “CABOX” has an incredible website and ambitious plans respecting a “Geopark” in the Bay of Islands area. They have recently had some success in advancing their geopark application.

I still can't fathom why respectable people are maintaining X accounts. It's depressing. Such a basic moral line.

CBC News is still posting on X (a hate-speak and conspiracy-peddling platform that is hostile to science and journalism) & not posting on Bluesky; a platform that has become integral in Canada's "Elbows Up" movement.
🇨🇦 You can contact the CBC at ask@cbc.ca or 1-866-306-4636
Time to go post-al, CBC.
