According to Red Star News, last Saturday (22nd), the temperature in the Thai capital Bangkok reached 42°C. What is even more frightening is that according to the "thermal index" issued by the Thai Meteorological Bureau, due to the hot and humid weather, the actual somatosensory temperature in Bangkok may be as high as 54°C. In the face of the threat posed by the heat wave, the Thai government warned residents to avoid outdoor activities and be alert to the danger of heat stroke.
In addition to Thailand, many parts of Asia also faced extreme heat in April. Bangladesh, India and other countries have recently had to take compulsory measures to temporarily cut off power due to the surge in power demand caused by high temperatures.
In addition to the temperature itself, the hot and humid weather is to accelerate the loss of water in the human body, making the body temperature rise sharply. The "thermal index" (a measure of somatosensory temperature) of Chonburi province in eastern Thailand reached 53.8 ℃ on the 22nd,23 somatosensory temperatures in the country's southern resort island of Phuket exceeded 54 degrees Celsius.
According to Hongde Xiaobian, the Thai government sent a report to large areas of the country, including the capital Bangkok, on the 22nd.A warning of extreme heat was issued to remind people not to go out.According to Reuters, citing the Thai Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Department, the temperature in at least 28 provinces in Thailand exceeded 40 degrees Celsius that day. The meteorological department said that the zui high temperature in Bangkok's Bonnah district reached 42 degrees Celsius that day, while the somatosensory temperature was as high as 54 degrees Celsius.
CCTV News Headquarters reporter Yang Tanli:My personal experience, the last time I went out to shoot, I stood in the sun for 20 minutes, and everyone saw that my face in the camera became red and swollen. So this time I specially chose the river, which was covered by tall buildings, but I was covered with sticky sweat when I stood for a while.
Head office reporter Yan:This is the city center of Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia. At around 3 pm local time, the weather forecast shows that the local temperature is about 33°C to 34°C. But because the local climate is very humid, the actual body temperature is much higher than 34 degrees. My shirt, chest and back were already wet. I was only on the road for five minutes. The local meteorological department has issued a high temperature warning, advising local people to stay at home as much as possible during the high temperature period at noon and afternoon, go out less and drink more water. The area around me is usually a very crowded area, usually bustling. People also stay at home according to the recommendations of the meteorological department. We rarely see pedestrians walking on the road and not many vehicles.
