Avoid exerting in the Sunlight

As the maximum temperature had exceeded by 2-3 Celsius points in most parts of the island, the Meteorological Department had issued a notice requesting the public to refrain from exerting themselves in broad daylight.

With the heat rising with exertion of the body, the present climatic condition does not provide the opportunity to reduce such body heat, therefore it is advisable to refrain from exerting in broad daylight.

The Department says that the absence of inter monsoon rains and the change of wind patterns had affected the environment to experience immense heat these days.

The senior technology scientist Keerthi Wickramarathne had said that the unbearable heat that is being experienced could lead to the spread of severe headaches, skin diseases and also viruses.

The electronic magnets, X rays and Gema Rays present in the Suns rays could pose health problems to humans as well as to animals.

With the human behavioural patterns and the environmental changes, the global warming is also accelerated. The increase heat generated by the Sun leads to the generation of earthly viruses he further said.
