Miguel Saavedra, in charge of operations of the Municipal Emergency and Risk Management Directorate, confirmed that during midday this Saturday several calls were answered for falling trees and interface fires in the city. They also recommend avoiding parking under leafy trees and signs.

According to the report of the National Meteorology and Hydrology Service (Senamhi), the maximum temperature reached 33 degrees Celsius and the winds reached a speed of 70 kilometers per hour.

Due to the gusts of wind, Saavedra revealed that several emergencies were reported this Saturday morning, including falling leafy trees, signs, and even interface fires. “But of which only material damage was lamented,” he said.

For this Sunday, a similar weather situation is expected, so it is recommended to avoid parking vehicles under trees, signs or objects that pose a risk, in the face of strong winds.

Likewise, he advises not to burn garbage, since the climatic conditions are conducive for a simple burning to spread and become a forest fire.
