Bavaria is preparing for heat wave: expected up to 35 degrees!

Again and again extreme temperatures are measured in Bavaria, which often lead to health risks. The German Weather Service (DWD) has issued a warning, some of which alerted and sensitized the population. In particular, the coming days promise to draw additional attention to the heat load.

A heat wave for Bavaria is expected

In the next few days, the thermometer in Bavaria will increase up to 35 degrees. The regions around Munich, Passau and Donau-Ries are particularly affected. The warning of the DWD applies on Sunday between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. Such high temperatures often only reach the hottest days of the year and have the potential to not only influence leisure activities, but also to cause health problems.

health effects and necessary precautions

The DWD indicates that heat load can be dangerous for the human body. It is advised to avoid direct sunlight, drink water regularly and keep interiors as cool as possible. Older people and people with previous illnesses in particular are at risk if the temperatures rise extremely.

summer pulls people to the lakes

The summer temperatures mean that many people flock to the numerous lakes in Bavaria. These offer a welcome refreshment on hot days and are particularly popular with families and young people. A wide range of excursions and the possibility of cooling down in the water are aspects that make the Bavarian lakes a popular goal, especially if the temperatures skyrocket.

weather forecast for the coming days

On Saturday, August 10th, temperatures between 26 and 32 degrees will already be expected. The forecasts indicate that the temperatures will continue to rise on Sunday, with some regions reaching temperatures up to 34 degrees. The nights remain rather mild, which enables a steady change between heat a day and tolerable nights.

heat wave as a social phenomenon

The current heat wave in Bavaria reflects a larger social phenomenon that has become noticeable in recent years. Extreme weather conditions are becoming more common, which illustrates the need for prevention strategies and information about health protection on warm days. The awareness of such weather phenomena and their risks has increased among the population, which is also reflected in the number of information campaigns of the DWD.

The coming days in Bavaria promise high summer weather, which brings both leisure fun and health risks. Responsible handling of the heat is recommended to survive the hot days unscathed.
