high temperature hitting the daily routine

Sri Lanka
April 23, 2017 11:05am CST
Lat year 2016 we got an unusually high rainfall in May and after that upto now we didn't get enough rainfall. we received rainfall but in the mean time but it was not enough. So these days the temperature is around 36 ºC here.(36 ºCelsius = 96.8 ºFahrenheit ). People are advised to drink more water and refrain from going in the sunlight. Are there any food items better to eat during this hot weather? What about ur climate?

I like just salads when it is so hot my friend. It is not that hot here yet but in the height of the summer it may be. Yes drink water if you can. I am not partial to the heat in fact I love the cold weather.

Watermelon is a great fruit in hot weather. I don't know if you have it there though. Keep cool! And yes, drink a lot of liquids, preferably water.

@kevinakash That's a shame. They are affordable here. We should be seeing them in a couple months.

Just as I said in my post, it is very hot here in our place and the best refreshing thing is water. Yes, it is always advisable to drink lots of water when the temperature is hot.

I'm lucky to live in England where we don't get extremes of weather. Anything over 80 F is too hot for me.

@kevinakash Our average summer temperature would be mid-60sF, but it occasionally gets into the 90s, and days in the 70s are quite normal.

It's been a lovely spring in my area of the USA. I drink plenty of water and eat more salads, fruits, and vegetables when it's hot.

We are in summer here and will be in winter in about a month. It is quite hot over here too. Drinking water to keep yourself hydrated is recommended. Watermelon and coconut water are best to have in summer
