Extreme heat hits Iran as temperature reaches 50 degrees celsius
Iran is currently grappling with scorching temperatures, with the mercury soaring to 50 degrees Celsius in the Sistan-Belucian province.
The General Director of Meteorology, Muhsin Haydari, highlighted that Zahak and Hirmand are the province's hottest cities, experiencing extreme heat.
Haydari further explained that starting from Monday, the air temperature is expected to decrease due to the rise in wind speed. As the wind picks up, there will also be an increase in the transportation of dust particles.
In light of these conditions, Haydari cautioned the public to limit their time outdoors unless necessary and advised against unnecessary travel when visibility is reduced due to dust.
Taking precautions and avoiding exposure to the extreme heat and dust-laden environment are essential for public safety during this period. (ILKHA)
