A heat wave is spreading across the Italian peninsula. Starting this weekend, temperatures
00:07
are expected to hit 34 degrees Celsius in northern regions, around 35 degrees in central
00:13
areas and 40 degrees in the south. The peak, 42 degrees Celsius, is expected in Sicily.
00:20
After a recent spell of bad weather, the sun is returning and temperatures will spike with
00:24
a change of up to 15 degrees in some areas. But in the south, people are used to the heat
00:30
and know how to deal with it.
00:54
Local health authorities are prepared, especially to protect vulnerable people such as the elderly,
01:08
who are often referred to emergency rooms with heat stroke.
01:25
For the elderly, free phone numbers will also be available where they can ask for assistance
01:32
and advice. Even small precautions can make the difference between enjoying a tranquil
01:37
summer day and heat stroke.
01:54
The heat, the real one, has also reached Italy and, above all, in the southern regions,
01:59
it will also reach 40 degrees. It seems obvious to say so, but many do not take the necessary
02:05
precautions. First of all, drink plenty of water.
