The sudden surge in heat comes just as the city's outdoor pools have started reopening.
"This is like being on vacation," said Tarek Hageahmad, enjoying the water at the Millican-Ogden outdoor pool.
"It's exactly like being on vacation. It's such an amazing time with the family. It's local and the kids love it and it's an amazing family experience here."
"It's good to get out of the heat," said Calgarian Anna Furlong.
"There's not many other places to cool off around Calgary."
When it's hot in Calgary in July, it's always hotter at the Calgary Stampede.
