Weather forecast for May 19: Severe heat, some places especially severe

1. Current hot weather in the past 24 hours: Nghe An province has experienced hot weather with the highest temperature commonly ranging from 37 - 39 degrees Celsius, with some places over 40 degrees Celsius.

Due to the effects of heat combined with low humidity and the southwest wind causing the foehn effect, there is a risk of explosions and fires in residential areas due to increased demand for electricity and the risk of forest fires. In addition, heat can also cause dehydration, exhaustion, and heat stroke in the human body when exposed to high temperatures for a long time.
