Macedonia is in for a major heatwave next week, with temperatures expected to reach up to 40 degrees.

The effects will be felt this week as well, with highs of 38, but afternoon rains can cool off the temperatures a little. Next week, besides the heat, the public can expect that the UV solar index will be between 9 and 10, requiring everybody to hydrate, wear light clothes and avoid spending too much time in the sun.
