The central of central and northern-central regions will experience the worst heat with temperatures of up to 41-42 degrees Celsius as a westerly hot low-pressure system has moved in with heat and dry weather.

In the southern and Central Highlands regions, daytime mugginess will keep temperatures hovering around 33-35 degrees Celsius.

However, the southland and central highlands will be given relief with cool rains in the afternoons as the southwesterly winds have become gradually stronger.
