The week will be hot
In Uzbekistan, from September 7 to 13, air temperatures will rise again, with some regions experiencing heat of up to +36…+39 degrees in the middle of the week. However, this heat will not last long: first in the north, and then across the republic, the weather will cool down significantly. Daytime heat, nighttime autumn coolness, and strong winds may have various impacts on agriculture and public health.
Impact on agriculture
The daytime heat of +36…+39 degrees and nighttime coolness of +10…+20 degrees in mid-September will become an additional stress factor for crops. On hot days, soil moisture evaporates faster, and the demand for water increases. Therefore, it is advisable to carry out irrigation in the morning or evening. In cotton, vegetables, melons, and late crops, high temperatures may accelerate the ripening process, but a lack of moisture will affect crop quality. Strong winds, meanwhile, will intensify soil moisture loss and dust rising. The coolness over the weekend will create favorable conditions for crops to recover from heat stress.
Impact on public health
The main factor for the body this week is the large difference between daytime heat and nighttime coolness. This situation puts an additional load on the thermoregulation system. On hot days, it is recommended to drink enough water, avoid staying in the sun for long periods, and move heavy labor to cooler times. At night, it is necessary to dress appropriately for the cool weather and not to set the air conditioner to a very low temperature.
Children, the elderly, and people with chronic illnesses should be especially careful. When dust storms rise, people with sensitive respiratory tracts are advised to limit their time outdoors.
