Temperatures are expected to spike to a record-breaking 36°C on Tuesday, surpassing Monday’s already extreme heat. While warm weather can be enjoyable, this intense heat poses significant dangers, especially for vulnerable groups. High temperatures increase the risk of dehydration, heatstroke, and overheating, which can exacerbate existing health issues, particularly for those with heart or respiratory conditions.
