What is Canadas new colour-coded alert system and how it will ensure public safety during extreme weather

Canada's weather alerts are getting a makeover. Starting November 26, 2025, a new colour system will use yellow, orange, and red to show how serious extreme weather could be. This helps everyone understand risks quickly. Meteorologists will now focus on potential impacts, not just the weather itself. This change aims to keep Canadians safer during increasingly frequent climate events.
