At the beginning of July, hot weather intensifies in Uzbekistan
Starting from July 2, hot weather is expected in Uzbekistan. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
According to the information from the Hydrometeorological Service of the Republic of Uzbekistan – O‘zgidromet – a warm air flow is coming from the southern direction. These air masses are moving from the territories of Turkmenistan and Iran, causing a significant increase in temperature in the country.
According to analyses, on July 2 and 3, the temperature will sharply rise in the Republic of Karakalpakstan and Khorezm region. Additionally, the highest temperatures are expected in Navoi and Bukhara regions on July 3 and 4.
From July 4, the temperature will further increase in central and southern regions, particularly in Tashkent, Samarkand, Jizzakh, Kashkadarya, Surkhandarya, Syrdarya, and Andijan regions. In some places, temperatures may reach 44-46 degrees.
Experts are calling this period the hottest week of summer. Especially in desert areas, the dry and windless weather is likely to have a negative impact on people's health.
For this reason, it is recommended that the population increase caution, drink more water in hot weather, stay in shaded areas, and limit heavy physical work. The expected temperature increases are as follows: on July 2-3, 41-43 degrees in Karakalpakstan and Khorezm, on July 3-4, 44-46 degrees in Navoi and Bukhara, and on July 4-5, 42-44 degrees in central and southern regions.
In some desert areas, temperatures may rise to 46 degrees. High temperatures negatively affect human health.
Therefore, it is necessary to protect oneself from the sun during hot times, wear hats, use sunglasses, and avoid being outside from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM. It is important to take special precautions for pregnant women, children, and the elderly.
Additionally, high temperatures may also negatively affect agriculture. Due to water shortages, there is a possibility of crop damage.
Moreover, the increased use of fans and air conditioners will raise the demand for electricity. Electricity supply organizations are working in emergency mode to provide uninterrupted service.
O‘zgidromet specialists recommend closely monitoring weather information during the hot weather, taking precautions, and postponing heavy physical work if possible. Since the temperature is 7-10 degrees higher than normal, this is considered an anomalous situation.
In conclusion, the first week of July will be a challenging period for Uzbekistan. During this time, it is important to take precautions against the hot weather, maintain health, and warn each other.
All citizens are requested to adhere to the recommendations.
