Heat Advisory in FW Hannover: Avoid Leaving Children and Animals in Vehicles During High Temperatures
The city of Hannover is currently experiencing high temperatures, with temperatures reaching up to 35°C today. In light of this, the Fire Department Hannover is urging residents to take extra care when it comes to the safety of children and pets.
The official website of the Fire Department Hannover is www.feuerwehr-hannover.de, and the contact number for emergencies is 0511 912-1293. Raphael Schrank, the head of the department, is the contact person for further questions.
The Fire Department Hannover has emphasised the dangers of leaving children and dogs in parked vehicles in direct sunlight. According to their advice, temperatures inside parked vehicles can rise rapidly, even when outside temperatures are above 20°C. In fact, the temperature inside a car can reach 46°C within 15 minutes when outside temperatures are above 20°C. This rapid rise in temperature can lead to heatstroke, which can cause permanent organ or nervous system damage in both children and dogs.
In case of an emergency involving a child or dog in a hot vehicle, call the fire and rescue service on 112. The Fire Department Hannover did not provide any new information about the risks of leaving children and dogs in parked vehicles in direct sunlight, but they did remind the public that this is a serious issue that requires immediate attention.
It's worth noting that the Fire Department Hannover did not provide any new information about the high temperatures in the city of Hannover or the history or prior positions of Raphael Schrank before becoming the head of the department. However, they did encourage the public to stay informed and to take necessary precautions to ensure the safety of their loved ones during this heatwave.
