Parts of the province are going to be feeling more than a little swampy this weekend thanks to an incoming heatwave.

According to Environment Canada, a "dome of intense heat" will sweep across northwestern Ontario today paving the way for sweaty temperatures tomorrow.

"Daytime highs will climb into the low- to mid-thirties. Overnight lows will be in the upper teens, providing little relief from the heat. Humidex values near 40 are expected on the weekend," an excerpt from the warning reads.

The heat is expected to last through the weekend and will hit especially hard in Thunder Bay. A heat warning is also in place for Sault Ste. Marie, Wawa, Fort Hope and more.

Environment Canada is reminding people to stay hydrated and stay in a cool place when possible.
