What a heat! strong temperatures in almost the entire Mexican Republic

According to the National Water Commission (CONAGUA), it is estimated that during the morning of April 18, 2022, the countercyclical system in medium levels of the atmosphere will maintain the heat wave, with a range from warm to hot forecast higher temperatures at 40 to 45 degrees in most states of the country.

In the face of high temperatures, Conagua offered some recommendations for Mexicans:

“In the face of high temperatures, it is recommended that the population avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, to hydrate properly, to pay special attention to the chronically ill, children and the elderly, as well as to follow the instructions of the authorities of the health and civil protection sector.”

In the north, wind is expected with gusts of 60 to 80 kilometers per hour and possible formation of whirlwinds in Coahuila, Nuevo León and Tamaulipas; hoppers or dust storms are approaching in Chihuahua, Durango, San Luis Potosí and Zacatecas. During the morning, minimum temperatures of 0 to 5 degrees Celsius are expected in Baja California and with frost in Chihuahua and Durango.
