BANGKOK: Thailand is reeling under the grip of a severe heat wave with temperatures soaring to record highs in some areas and authorities warned of harsher weather in the coming days.
More than three dozen districts across Thailand’s 77 provinces have seen record temperatures in April, generally the hottest month of the year, with new highs beating records held as far back as 1958, according to data from the Thai Meteorological Department.
