Take precautions in the current heatwave – says weather service
Temperatures are expected to soar to over 40 degrees in some parts of Gauteng both today and tomorrow.
The South African Weather Service is urging Gauteng residents not to underestimate the current heatwave.
Temperatures are expected to soar to over 40 degrees both today and tomorrow, with respite only expected from Friday.
The service has forecast showers and scattered thundershowers from Thursday into the weekend, which is believed will offer some relief from the current heatwave.
The heatwave coincides with the worst drought in years.
To protect your health during these hot temperatures, remember to keep cool and drink plenty of liquids, and stay out of the sun as much as possible.
Heatstroke and dehydration are a serious risk for both animals and humans during this time.
