With the advent of summer Vacationa meteorological phenomenon characterized by high temperatures that can cause Thermal blow In people.
What is a cannula?
A Vacation This is a period of increase in temperature from excessive air heating, which is conjugated with a transparent sky and low precipitation.
It is also known as intrastal drought, half of the summer or summer drought.
It has a duration of 40 days and takes its name from the renovation of the mayor or Kenkul for the Romans.
It was previously believed that the heat emanating from the Sun joined the star Sirius, with a greater brightness, which in the summer is located on the opposite side of the star, which led to an increase in temperature.
In Mexico, this meteorological phenomenon mainly affects the states of Veracrus, Tabasco, Tamaulipas, Nuevo Leon, San Luis Potosi, Colim, Michoacan, Herrero, Ohak and Chiapa.
When does the cannula begin in Mexico?
The National Water supply Commission (Conagua) provides for Vacation This year 2025 begins Thursday July 3With what will say goodbye until August 11.
Thus, during July, rains are expected below the average in most of the country.
On the other hand, in June, rains are predicted above average in the north, west and east of the country; National excess 12 mm.
Consequences and precautions to extreme heat
The authorities warn that intra -bald drought leads to a greater frequency of solar radiation, as well as to an increase in surface temperature.
Within 40 days, they can increase diseases associated with heat, while the agricultural sector can be exposed to the attack of pests and stress of water.
The federal government calls for citizens to protect itself from high temperatures, especially from 11:00 to 16:00, as well as:
- Meshkov’s dress
- Do not perform strong physical exertion under the sun
- hydrate
- Eat fresh products
- Use sun protection
- Use sunny lenses with a UV filter, lid and/or hat
- Avoid alcoholic beverages
- Do not stay in a car with closed doors.
Thermal blow
The long -term exposure to high ambient temperatures can cause a thermal blow, which is characterized by a sudden increase in body temperature.
He has as signs of anxiety:
- hot and dry skin, but not sweaty
- confusion or loss of knowledge
- Frequent vomiting
- Lack of air problems or breathing
The human body works at 37 degrees Celsius (Celsius), but has mechanisms for regulating temperature.
It is these mechanisms to the fact that the thermal blow stops, increasing the temperature of the body, which can cause neurological damage and even death.
Symptoms of this condition are:
- dizziness
- confusion
- disorientation
- Excessive sweating in the beginning with the subsequent lack of sweat
- redness
- Dry skin
- The body temperature of the fever is more than 39.4 degrees C C
- Inappropriate behavior (especially remove clothes)
- Acceleration of heart rate with a weak blow
- headache
- Unconscious
- Seizures
In case there is a victim of a thermal blow, the patient should be delivered to a fresh area and put his legs high. Help should be requested then.
The patient can help remove as much clothes as possible to try to reduce his body temperature. To do this, it is recommended to place wet fabric or ice on armpits or English.
The use of air conditioning or fan is also recommended.
If a person registers body temperature of more than 40ºC, it will be necessary to swim with cold water until the thermometer marks 38ºC.
To give birth to such a temperature, it is necessary to allow the cold to avoid hypothermia.
If in the later 15 minutes the patient’s temperature rises again, it will be necessary to use colder processing.
Pets are also sensitive to heat strokes that are asked to always have accessible water and avoid walks during the day so that their pads are not damaged with hot asphalt.
Lack of water
One of the greatest consequences Vacation This is its influence on water supply systems.
The lack of rains in combination with high temperatures reduces the level of dams, rivers, wells and mantles of the aquifer, which affects the supply of drinking water in rural cities and communities.
Tabasco, Kampeche, Yukatan, Veracrus, Ohakak, Nuevo Leon, San Luis Potosi, Mexico and Mexico City, are states, which usually have problems with water during an intra -thorough drought.
Until June 15, the federal monitor of the drought of the federal government said that 308 municipalities of the country represented drought and that 303 represented abnormally dry conditions.
