In Saskatchewan alone, emissions totaled 23 megatons just in the month of May, obliterating the record of 2 megatons.

Thanks to thicker cloud cover, we will only manage mid 60s in the coming days. Starting Thursday, sea breezes will cool us off even more in the afternoon along the coast. Ironically, this may also help stabilize the atmosphere, keeping the coast drier than other spots on Thursday and Friday.
