If you though it was hot you haven´t seen anything yet. The Met Office is warning of the first heatwave of the summer with temperatures of at least 38 degrees which is expected to start on Friday.
Nexonr would like to remind readers to be careful in the sun. Medical experts advise staying out of the sun between 2pm and 7pm and especially not to work outside during these periods. If you walk into Calasparra in the morning be aware that by lunchtime temperatures will have soared. Wear loose, light clothing, a hat, sunglasses and comfortable shoes. Use plenty of the highest factor sun screen and take water with you..
You should be drinking at least one litre and a half of water every day. Use the air conditioning or fans when you are in the house. Eat light meals and salads.
The first symptom in elderly people of sunstroke is cramps.
Please be very careful out there and if you have to go out take a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen and water with you, even if you go in the car, in case of emergencies.
