After decades of only licensing its chip designs for others to use, UK-based Arm revealed the first chip it’s producing on its own, and the first customer. Dubbed the Arm AGI CPU, it’s another chip designed for inference, or running the cloud processing for AI tools like AI agents that can continue to spawn more and more tasks to run at once. The first company in line to use it is Meta, which has reportedly struggled to launch its own AI chips.

As a result, many are hoping that summer, which officially kicks off on June 21, marches to the beat of a different drum.</p><p>However, the first full month of Canada's shortest season may not bring the heat we've come to expect. </p><p>According to a <a href="https://www.farmersalmanac.com/long-range-weather-forecast/nova-scotia-pei-new-brunswick-quebec" target="_blank">long-range forecast from the 2024-25 Farmers' Almanac</a>, "Summer will be cooler than normal for Atlantic Canada through Quebec and around the Hudson Bay." The Almanac, which uses a centuries-old blend of astronomical and mathematical data to make long-term weather predictions, adds that "rainfall will be above normal across much of the country."</p><p>Here's how the rest of July is shaping up in Southern Quebec, according to the forecast:</p><p><strong>July 1 - 3:</strong> Clearing for Canada Day/ Moving Day, then fair.</p><p><strong>July 4 - 7:</strong> Widely scattered showers and thunderstorms.</p><p><strong>July 8 - 11:</strong> Widespread thunderstorms, then becoming fair.</p><p><strong>July 12 - 16:</strong> Rainy periods with warm temps.</p><p><strong>July 17 - 22:</strong> Sunny in the east, isolated thunderstorms in the west.</p><p><strong>July 23 - 31:</strong> A few thunderstorms, then turning hot.</p><p>The Almanac is calling for July temperatures in Quebec to hover around 20°C — not exactly scorching, but comfortably summer-like. What really stands out, though, is the expected rainfall. With 155 mm of precipitation forecasted, that's about 85 mm more than <a href="https://www.holiday-weather.com/montreal/averages/july/#:~:text=July%20in%20Montreal%20sees,of%20rainfall%20on%20an%20average." target="_blank">usual for the month</a>. </p><p>If the forecast holds true, Quebecers can expect a summer that doesn't quite sizzle but comes with plenty of surprises. A cooler-than-normal July may come as a relief for those who hate the heat, but the uptick in rain could put a damper on your weekend plans.</p><p>Want to know what the rest of summer could bring?
