Environment Canada has issued an extreme cold warning for parts of eastern Ontario, including the communities of Pembroke, Arnprior, Calabogie, Renfrew and Bancroft.
As of Sunday afternoon, the agency was warning that — with the wind chill — it could feel as cold as –35 tonight and into Monday morning.
For some areas, the cold weather could continue until Wednesday.
Much of Canada is under a warning or watch due to winter weather. As of 3:30 p.m. Sunday, a warning had not been issued for Ottawa, although the overnight low in the nation’s capital is –20 C, with the wind making it feel more like –29.
Environment Canada issues extreme cold warnings when temperatures drop low enough that people can develop conditions like frostbite or hypothermia.
People who leave the house should dress warmly and make sure as little skin as possible is exposed, the agency said.
Symptoms to watch for in the cold include a colour change in one’s fingers and toes, chest pain, shortness of breath, muscle pain, weakness and numbness.
The agency also recommended checking up on friends, family, and neighbours and advised pet owners to keep their pets indoors.
