162
The weather in Germany changes. It rains in the north and east. There is also a strong wind. The south and west stay hot. The heat reaches 30 degrees. It is sunny in Switzerland. It gets 32 degrees hot there. It does not rain much in Switzerland. So forests catch fire easily. Warm and wet weather helps mosquitos. There are 50 kinds of mosquitos in Germany. The house mosquito grows very fast now. The Asian Tiger-Mosquito spreads too. It likes small water places. These are flower pots or bird baths. These mosquitos can spread bad sicknesses. One example is the West-Nil-Virus. The virus causes fever or head pain. Protect yourself from mosquitos. Cover rain barrels with nets. Empty the water from flower vases. Change the water in bird baths often. The World-Weather-Organization worries about the world. A natural event called El Niño comes. It brings much heat and heavy rain. This harms farms and our health. We feel the results until 2027.
