00:00 40 degrees Celsius, that's the maximum daytime temperature recorded in Echague, Isabela yesterday.
00:09 This is the highest in the country as of 2024.
00:12 According to the forecast, it will be different from the heat index where the data of humidity or the amount of water vapor in the air is included.
00:21 And it may be higher than the maximum daytime temperature.
00:25 Earlier, 15 places recorded a danger level heat index, the highest is the 46 degrees Celsius heat index in Borlan, Palawan.
00:36 Markipolido is a witness.
00:38 It's only April but some places in the country have already seen the extreme temperature forecast of hope.
00:47 Yesterday, 40 degrees Celsius in Echague, Isabela exceeded 39.7 degrees for Northern Luzon.
00:55 This is the highest maximum daytime temperature this year.
00:59 39.6 degrees in Camiling, Tarlac exceeded 39.4 degrees for Lowland, Luzon.
01:06 The hottest temperature in Metro Manila this year was also recorded.
01:11 36.9 degrees yesterday in Illa, Pasay City exceeded 36.8 degrees in the forecast.
01:17 In May, the heat index is still high so the weather may get hotter.
01:22 As early as April, we felt that it's possible that the maximum daytime temperature is higher than 40 degrees.
01:33 So, Pag-asa said that there is a 50-50 chance that the maximum daytime temperature will reach 42.2 degrees next month.
01:42 Pag-asa is studying this now and they will give an update next week.
01:46 This is still the maximum daytime temperature, not the heat index or the feeling of heat that may be higher than the recorded temperature.
01:54 The heat index depends on the discomfort level of the person.
02:00 So, it means that it's different. But the maximum daytime temperature is what our instruments recorded.
02:07 In this heat, health experts always advise to avoid sunbathing, drink plenty of water and don't forget to take maintenance medicine.
02:16 In the old National High Schools in Pangasinan, children are allowed to continue face-to-face classes.
02:23 The schedule is 6.30 a.m. to 10 a.m. and when the afternoon comes, modular learning will be conducted.
02:30 It's very difficult for teachers to follow up their monitoring in asynchronous.
02:37 So, it means that from 6.30 p.m., this is also the time that the children are given modules.
02:45 At the same time, the children are also submitting their activities.
02:49 Mas Ruer has no choice but to sell his clothes from the cartons he's pushing.
02:54 It's hot, my head hurts and my eyes hurt because it's so hot.
03:00 It's hot but it's hotter than wearing a jacket. The sun is hotter.
03:09 He says that he's getting dizzy if he drinks more water.
03:14 He just needs to endure to support his parents.
03:17 I still need to sell. Even if they say that it's hot, I'll just clean it.
03:25 You don't have money, you don't earn.
