SMHI warns of heat wave - risk groups should think about

In the municipalities of Norrköping, Linköping, Finspång, Mjölby, Boxholm, Åtvidaberg, Söderköping and Kinda, the temperature is expected to rise above 30 degrees.

This means that those in risk groups must be extra careful in the heat.

MSB, the authority for civil protection and emergency preparedness, has several examples of what is important to think about during a heat wave.

Think about this

It is important to keep track so that the temperature indoors does not get too hot, for example by pulling down awnings or curtains.

At night, you can take the opportunity to open the windows to cool down the home.

Avoid exerting yourself too much and remember to drink plenty of water.

Another tip is to cool down the body with a shower.

SMHI's warning extends to 18:00 on Monday.
