Gosh...the past 2 months or so, Kuching seems to be hit by a heatwave. With daily suns, and hot humid weather of up 34' Celsius daily. U cant help but hoping for rain, the last two days, the rain finally pouring down (me and Jac was heading somewhere to the town for a quick bite, when it starts to rain) , my weekend at least are a bit cooler than usual. I'm making use of this rare cold(after the rain) for a good good night rest.
Look out local Kuching people, the forecast seems to show this 'summer' will be lasting a little bit longer than usual, comparing to the last few years. Global warming alert? maybe. It shows, even at places where green lush forest is still well preserved, we are still unable to escape for from global warming, please rethink of what ever you do around you to help cure our mother nature. Scientiest claimed that, earth has an increased of temperature for the last century. Extreme summer is almost every where.
Meanwhile, what can we do to make sure you wont be impacted by this hot-ness
*drinks loads of liquids(plain water, fruit juices and avoid carbonated drinks) to avoid extreme dehydration
* avoid going out under a direct sun(between 1pm to 4pm, where the sun at the vertical equator and the heat is more direct )
* for those who has no choice but to be outside(like myself) put on sunblock SPF 50 and above. Direct sun can damaged your skin and contribute to chances of getting skin cancer
* eat more vegetables and fruits as the vitamin C will help to replenished dehydrated skin
* for those in a control climate(office or home with air conditioned) try to drinks loads of water too, artificial cooling can also damaged skin and increase dehydrations.
* for a good night sleep, open your windows(only if you're staying at areas which is safe and secure) natural coolness in the evening well help to improve your sleeps( sleeps will help body to heal faster and generate better immune system)
