Hottest Day Ever in Hamilton?

Hamilton could break a record for hottest day ever today as temperatures could go above the projected high. The honour currently goes to a July scorcher in 1911 when the thermometer topped 41 C, according to Environment Canada.

It's just after 9 a.m. and Hamilton has already set a record for the warmest morning, as measured at John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport.

The minimum temperature observed this morning was 25.2 C. By 8 a.m. with the sun still making its way up in the sky, the temperature had already climbed to 28 C with a humidex of 40. The normal at this time is supposed to be around 17 C.
The temperatures are set to climb to 37 Celsius. But with the humidex, it will feel like 48.
That’s as hot as Austin, Texas, as Dubai or Jerusalem.
