              We are at 27c now and we have put one of the a/c on. We have been issued with a warning by DGS = Directorate de General Saude ...

              'During this week, “very high temperatures are expected with tropical nights, that is, nights when the temperature will not drop below 20º”, stressed the Director-General of Health, recalling that there are four large groups that end up more vulnerable: children, the elderly, pregnant women and the chronically ill.

              For this reason, the head of DGS recalled some “basic measures” such as drinking water or natural fruit juices without sugar, stressing that it is necessary to drink even if there is no feeling of thirst or to wear loose, fresh clothes, a hat and sunglasses. .

              Meals should be cold and light and should be several times a day and people should stay for two or three hours in cool environments, because “the body has mechanisms for thermal regulation but needs help”, he warned. Avoiding too much physical effort and not being in the sun during the hottest hours'.

                  It's brightened up now, hazy and fairly warm, no wind at all.

                    First it drizzled darkly, then it rained noisily, then it went calm and mild... and now blowing a force 6 and a warning out and heavy rain. Never gets boring out here..

                      Overcast but very bright and warm and humid. Supposed to be up to the high 70's by Friday.

                        Still warm 20C but the sun has vanished and it's a tad muggy. Dark ominous looking clouds all afternoon but surprisingly no rain.
