It has been a record-shattering day of heat for Barbadians today.
Director of the Barbados Meteorological Services Sabu Best says temperatures at one monitoring station, have reached heights never seen before.
He says high temperatures, which have been magnified by Tropical Storm Philippe, are expected to last through to Tuesday.
He’s reminding the public to take precautions to protect themselves, and their animals from the record-breaking heat.
The BMS head says crops are also being affected due to a lack of rain, but there may be some relief soon.
