This new forecast has revealed that Canada's weather is going to "sizzle" in July.
Some provinces are expected to get temperatures that are "well above normal" throughout the month.
According to The Weather Network's new forecast for July, it's set to be the warmest month of the year, with very warm weather in most of the country.
The hottest weather in Canada will extend from the Rockies to the Great Lakes.
But warmer-than-normal temperatures are still expected across most of the country.
Alberta's weather is set to feature "well above normal" temperatures in southern parts of the province, along with more southern areas of Saskatchewan and Manitoba.
That includes Calgary, Edmonton, Regina, Saskatoon and Winnipeg.
Parts of northwestern Ontario on the border with Manitoba and the U.S. are forecast to get "well above normal" temperatures, too.
The Weather Network said that the hottest weather will move back and forth across Canada during July.
For most of the month, the heat will be in the Prairies, but it will shift into Ontario, Quebec and Atlantic Canada sometimes.
So, Ontario's weather is forecast to be sizzling with summer heat at times in July!
According to The Weather Network, this shift will reduce the risk of extended heat waves and allow for "refreshing" breaks from high temperatures.
B.C.'s weather is forecast to have above-normal temperatures in most parts of the province.
That's also expected in most of Manitoba and Ontario, southern parts of Quebec, all of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and P.E.I., and southern parts of Newfoundland.
Near normal temperatures are forecast on B.C.'s coast and Vancouver Island, along with northern parts of Ontario and Quebec.
When it comes to rain, The Weather Network revealed that western parts of Canada — including all of Alberta and most of B.C., Saskatchewan and Manitoba — will get below-normal precipitation in July.
It won't be a completely dry month, though. Thunderstorms are expected across the region, which could bring severe storms and localized, torrential rain.
An active weather pattern is forecast across eastern parts of the country from Ontario to Atlantic Canada.
Thunderstorms will be more frequent because of muggy conditions and occasional cold fronts, but there will be dry stretches.
According to The Weather Network, the most precipitation is expected around Hudson Bay in Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec, and from southwestern Ontario to the Maritimes.
