A severe heatwave gripped much of Europe on Sunday, with temperatures nearing 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit), prompting nationwide warnings, transport disruption and signs of strain on wildlife and at tourist hotspots.
The heat surge on June 21, the summer solstice in the northern hemisphere and typically the start of the three hottest months of the year, raised concerns of an early and persistent onset of extreme conditions.
24C? Man I’m in one of the coldest cities on the planet. I get heat stroke immediately any time I approach past 30°N. Even I don’t feel hot until around 28C or so.
My fiancee is Turkish and she gets cold at 16 though so I guess you must somehow be further north than I am.
