Argentina Faces Early-Summer Heat Wave as Weather Service Warns of Hotter 2026

Experts urge cooler-hour training with structured hydration to reduce heat-illness risk.

Overview

  • Argentina’s national weather service forecasts highs of 36–40 °C with a peak around December 31 and warns of roughly 45% greater thermal pressure in summer 2026.
  • Hydrate before activity, take small sips every 10–20 minutes during exercise, and replace fluids and salts afterward rather than waiting to feel thirsty.
  • Schedule workouts for 6–9 a.m. or after 7 p.m., avoid 10 a.m.–5 p.m., choose light clothing, sun protection and ventilated or shaded spaces.
  • Trainers recommend easing off intensity and frequency to about two or three sessions per week and prioritizing progressive loads, proper technique and a warm-up–training–cool-down structure to prevent injury.
  • Watch for dizziness, severe headache, nausea, cramps or confusion, stop activity and cool down immediately, and remember children, older adults and people with chronic conditions are at higher risk; kids should avoid strenuous activity from 10:00–16:00, be offered frequent fluids and never be left in vehicles.
