Detailed forecast:
Risk warning level for natural disasters due to heat: Level 1.
Due to the impact of heat and extreme heat combined with low humidity in the air, there is a risk of fires and explosions in residential areas due to increased electricity demand and the risk of forest fires. Moreover, the heat may lead to dehydration, exhaustion, and heatstroke for individuals exposed to high temperatures for extended periods.
The Center notes that the forecasted temperature in heat warnings and the perceived actual outdoor temperature may differ by 2-4 degrees, and may even be higher depending on heat-absorbing surfaces such as concrete and asphalt.
