Quebec's weather forecast has taken a bizarre turn, captivating the internet and sparking a wave of humorous reactions. A screenshot of a weather forecast segment from a Quebec TV broadcast, shared on Reddit, has generated quite the buzz. The image, prominently featuring the text "TENDANCE SUR 5 JOURS - QUÉBEC," showcases the upcoming weather for the region with some staggering figures.

The forecast spans five days, detailing the expected temperatures and weather conditions. Here's a brief breakdown:

- **Wednesday (MER)**: Partly cloudy with a 40% chance of precipitation, maxing out at 34°C.

- **Thursday (JEU)**: Mostly cloudy with an astonishing and seemingly erroneous high of 321°C.

- **Friday (VEN)**: Sunny with a comfortable high of 26°C.

- **Saturday (SAM)**: Partly cloudy, peaking at 26°C.

- **Sunday (DIM)**: Mostly cloudy with a high of 20°C.

The eye-popping 321°C for Thursday has prompted a slew of witty comments from Reddit users. One user exclaimed, "Scorchio!" while another jested, "This is how Quebec finally separates... Heat death." The humor continued with a user declaring, "Wearing my asbestos underwear so I don't get Swamp A**."

Others chimed in with remarks like, "Did they switch from Celsius to Kelvin?" and "Probably anticipated temperature inside of a wildfire." The high temperature has even led some to humorously consider calling out of work, as one user noted, "Uh oh. It means my last moments will be at work. Sigh."

The image also features a blonde female weather presenter, donning a black sleeveless top with matching red accessories, adding a touch of normalcy to the otherwise outrageous forecast. The TV news ticker at the bottom of the screen reads "CHÂLEUR PARTOUT!" which translates to "HEAT EVERYWHERE!"—a fitting summary for the bewildering forecast.

User comments continued to pour in, with one saying, "On the bright side you can broil some meat," and another adding, "Still feels better than a humid day in New Orleans." The vibrant reactions and creative banter highlight the community's ability to find humor in what is clearly a forecasting error.

Reddit's Quebec community has turned this weather mishap into an entertaining spectacle, reminding everyone to take such forecasts with a grain of salt, especially when they predict temperatures more suitable for a furnace than for a summer day.

As Thursday approaches, one thing is for certain: Quebec residents will be prepared, whether it’s for a laugh or just another ordinary day.
