According to The Weather Network, Calgary could see a high of 31 C on Monday with an overnight high of 14 C.

Meanwhile, Mexico City is looking at a high of 20 C. Alberta and Saskatchewan are the only places in Canada with heat warnings currently in effect, and temperatures of this nature are expected to last for the next three days, says Environment Canada.

While the extreme heat warnings are slated to end on Tuesday, this type of sweltering weather can be quite dangerous. "Pay particular attention to individuals that can experience earlier or more severe effects from heat including infants, children, seniors, and individuals with pre-existing lung, heart, kidney, nervous system, mental health or diabetic conditions, outdoor workers, as well as those who are socially isolated," says the alert.
