As we near the year 2026, attention is turning to the 'Dog Days'; a period known as the hottest time of the year. These days typically occur in early summer and are recognized as the peak of heat and intense sunlight.
History and Legends
The origin of this term goes back to ancient legends that refer to the connection between stars and high temperatures. According to some, during these days, the star 'Sirius', known as the Dog Star, reaches its peak, and this directly affects the temperatures on Earth.
In recent years, predictions based on a 100-year calendar have been officially published, which can help us understand what to expect during these days. Given climate change and other factors, can we really trust these predictions?
These predictions come at a time when many experts strongly believe that climate change could bring unpredictable outcomes. Therefore, it might be better to approach these predictions with caution and distance ourselves from legends.
Ultimately, the hottest days of the year could bring new opportunities for us, but are we ready to face these challenges?
