To cause this new wave of heat, the fourth of the summer, is the African anticyclone, called Lucifer. A very hot air mass is expanding over the central Mediterranean. The temperature maximum will be, especially for the South, with values higher than 40 degrees with a point of even 45 in some areas. A decrease is expected in the second part of the week in the southern regions. Instead, it will become warmer in the North with highs above 35 degrees on the Po Valley and muggy even during the night. In general, the heat will last at least until mid-August.
The Ministry of Health invites you not to expose yourself to heat or to the sun from 11 to 18, not to frequent particularly busy areas and to avoid physical activity outdoors during the hottest hours. You have to drink a lot, non-alcohol and too cold drinks, pay attention to the preservation of medicines, follow a light diet, wear light, light clothing, made of natural fibers, use hats and sunglasses.
