Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Fri. August 8th, 2025

Ottawa hasn’t seen a drop of rain for nearly 2 weeks. And as we head into another blazing-hot August weekend, Canada’s Capital is under a Heat Warning, with daily temperatures expected to hit and surpass 30 degrees Celsius over the next few days. We examine what’s to come in Hour 2 with Environment Canada meteorologist Crawford Luke. Over in Navan, festival organizers are crossing their fingers for a favourable forecast, as the annual Navan Fair kicks into high-gear. That’s a noteworthy event because it officially lights the fire for Fair Season! We go 1-on-1 with Tracey Hayes, who is the Advertising Director and Spokesperson for this longstanding event.
