As East Midlands faces yet another heatwave this summer, Lincolnshire braces for skyrocketing temperatures that could reach 34C. The East Midlands – Lincolnshire included – is currently under an amber heat health alert. This alert, which will last until Wednesday at 6 p.m., serves as a warning about possible health complications spurred by the heat. Local health services are bracing for load increases, while travel disruptions are to be expected. The advice to residents, particularly those above 65 years old or with underlying health issues, is to stay as cool and hydrated as possible to combat the heat. Government bodies including local authorities and UK Health Security Agency stress the importance of looking out for vulnerable neighbours and family members during this time.
