Montreal shatters over century-old maximum temperature record on Saturday

Montreal set a new maximum temperature record of 33.5 degrees Celsius, surpassing the previous record of 33.4 degrees set in 1921. This record-breaking heat is attributed to a heatwave affecting the region, with temperatures across Quebec expected to remain elevated for several days. Experts express concerns about the impacts of climate change on weather patterns, urging action to mitigate future extreme temperatures.
