The City of Montreal has found a new use for its ubiquitous traffic cones during this week’s ongoing heat wave: some cones have been modified into misting stations and installed in parks.

Sud-Ouest borough mayor Tan Shan Li shared a photo of one of the misting cones, located near Lionel-Groulx metro.

Today is the final day of intense heat in Montreal this week, with humidex values expected to reach 41 degrees.
