The National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting said that today, August 2, the weather from Thanh Hoa to Da Nang , the eastern provinces from Quang Ngai to Dak Lak and Khanh Hoa will be hot, with some places experiencing severe heat.

The highest temperature is commonly 35-37 degrees Celsius, some places above 37 degrees Celsius. Humidity 55-60%.

The Northeast region is hot with the highest temperature of 35-36 degrees Celsius, some places over 36 degrees Celsius. The Northwest region has localized heat with the highest temperature in some places over 35 degrees Celsius. Humidity 60-65%.

The heat wave from Thanh Hoa to Da Nang, the eastern provinces from Quang Ngai to Dak Lak and Khanh Hoa is likely to last for many days to come. The heat wave in the Northern region is likely to last until August 4.

Due to the effects of hot weather, some places have severe heat combined with low humidity in the air, so there is a high risk of explosions and fires in residential areas due to increased demand for electricity.

In addition, heat can also cause dehydration and heat exhaustion due to heat shock to the human body when exposed to high temperatures for a long time. The predicted temperature in the heat bulletin and the actual temperature felt outdoors can differ by 2-4 degrees Celsius, or even higher depending on the conditions of the surface such as concrete and asphalt.

The Central Highlands and the South have intermittent sunshine, showers occur mainly in the late afternoon.

Today, the sea area east of the northern East Sea, the area between the East Sea and the sea area from Gia Lai to Khanh Hoa has strong southwest wind level 5, sometimes level 6, gusting to level 7, rough sea, waves 2 - 3.5m high.
