Today, July 3, the heat wave is showing no signs of subsiding in Da Nang as its mercury remains as high as 39 degrees Celsius, even higher in some of its parts. However, the real-feel temperature is even higher during the daytime, Viet Nam's National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting said in its latest bulletin.

Tomorrow, July 4, Da Nang is projected to witness sunny days with the highs of 37 - 38 degrees Celsius. The lowest humidity is forecast to be measured at 50 - 65%.

From July 5 to 8, the baking heat is forecast to downgrade its intensity a bit.

The mercury is likely to reach above 35 degrees Celsius from 10:00am to 7:00pm.

During these sunny days, there is a possibility of thunderstorms accompanied by dangerous weather phenomena such as lightning and strong gusts in the afternoon, especially in mountainous areas.

The extreme heat combined with low humidity will bring high risks of fire and explosion in local residential areas, as well as blazes in forests.
