According to climate experts, the summer actually started in Thailand on Friday and will close in mid-May.

The Meteorological Department announced Friday that the mercury would start to rise through the summer and that winter would officially close.

Due to the extreme heat problems from Saturday through Thursday, which could reach up to 40°C, people in the northern and northern regions are advised to avoid prolonged outdoor activities.

The department predicted average temperatures this summer due to a cooler La Nia.
