Weekend

A new study has found that catching up on sleep on weekends is beneficial for the body. Experts suggest that an extra 1 hour and 27 minutes of sleep is the ideal amount to reduce health risks.

The upcoming weekend will be characterized by comfortable weather, relatively mild for the season. On Friday morning it will be partly cloudy, but during the day it will clear up and become pleasant. There will also be another slight drop in temperatures, mainly in mountainous areas and inland, and they will be normal for the season, alongside a noticeable relief in heat stress.

A gradual cooling trend is expected over the coming weekend, bringing relief from the heat across the country. Starting Thursday, temperatures will begin to drop toward seasonal averages as morning clouds clear.
