Warm weather advisory for parts of the country

A warm weather alert has been issued for people living in the Sabaragamuwa, Northern, North-central, North-western, and Eastern provinces, as well as in the Hambantota and Monaragala districts. Tomorrow, on the 6th, the heat index, which measures how hot it feels to the human body, is expected to reach the 'Caution Level' in some areas of these regions. The Heat Index Forecast is determined by looking at the humidity and the highest temperature, which reflects how temperatures feel on your skin, according to the Meteorological Department. They warned that staying out in the sun for too long or doing outdoor activities may cause fatigue. Continuing these activities might also lead to heat cramps. Residents are advised to drink plenty of water and to avoid intense outdoor tasks.
