According to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), parts of Asia have experienced extreme heat in recent weeks.

"April is typically the hottest month in South and Southeast Asia. However, El Niño and climate change are pushing temperatures to exceptionally high levels," said Ben Churchill, WMO Regional Director for Asia and the Southwest Pacific, in a press release at the end of April 2024.

"In northern Thailand, temperatures reached 44.2 degrees Celsius (°C). In neighboring Myanmar, temperatures have soared to 45.9 °C, and extremely hot conditions are expected to continue for several days," said Ben Churchill.

According to AccuWeather, until early May 2024, temperatures in major Myanmar cities remained the highest compared to neighboring major cities.

AccuWeather predicts that on Monday (May 6, 2024), the maximum temperature in Yangon, Myanmar, could reach 39 °C, and may feel like 43 °C.

This makes Yangon the hottest major city in Southeast Asia today. Bangkok, Thailand, follows with a predicted maximum temperature of 38 °C.

Compared to these cities, Jakarta's weather today is relatively "cool" with a predicted maximum temperature of 33 °C.
