One mother got an email
about Monday
Read out on LBC

Her son's school says go into class early
but will leave at 11:50AM


That mother said she will not send her son in,

[AnnieK]

My son's school is open as normal. They have said they will limit exposure at hottest times of day and ensure they stay hydrated. They had performances of their year 6 play scheduled but they have been postponed to weds / thurs now due to the numbers packed into the hall to watch.

I bet it won't hit manchester like they say it will

Nijmeegse Vierdaagse has become a 3 day event, the start on tuesday has been cancelled due to the prediction of too hot weather, around Nijmegen region it can get up to 39C and that is a no go to let all the elderly participants take part at that day

now going to start on Wednesday and finish as normal on Friday

The board of the 4Daagse Foundation, said on Sunday that it has no choice but to cancel the first walking day of the 104th edition of the International Four Days Marches in Nijmegen. The weather conditions will be unique on Tuesday, according to the march leader, Henny Sackers.

Temperatures are expected to be even worse than in 2006. That year, two walkers died during the first day of the event as temperatures rose to 34 degrees Celsius. Thought it was never conclusively proven that they died as a result of the weather, the organization drew up a heat protocol soon after.

According to Sackers, it is "code red" for the region around Nijmegen and the Betuwe, which makes up the route for the first day of the Four Days Marches. Alternative heat scenarios that the Four Days Marches has developed as part of its weather protocol are simply insufficient to handle the situation, he said at a very well-attended press conference in Nijmegen.

Sackers previously said that the amount of wind on the route and the humidity level was also important in their decision making. The event’s own weather service created a weather forecast analyzing the situation on the walking route.

The decision was expected to involve the event's medical service, an exercise physiologist, a sports psychologist and the Red Cross. Other measures the organization could have implemented include starting the event earlier or finishing later, shortening the route, and letting soldiers walk without a full pack of gear.

More than 42,000 walkers have registered for the 104th edition of the International Four Days Marches. Every year, several thousand people are no-shows. That figure could be high with the fear of high temperatures on the first day.
