I get the feeling the 'climate change' people are gonna regret changing their slogan, now that Europe is in meltdown mode. Tourists have been told to “stay away” as Europe is gripped by a huge heat dome, with temperatures soaring to 43C - 110 to us - just like it feels like every day in Florida...
At least 40 people have drowned in France, which yesterday had its hottest night since records began in 1947. Holiday hotspots have warned tourists to stay away as the extreme weather causes chaos.
All of Spain other than the Canaries are on high alert as hundreds of schools across France were forced to close in the sweltering temperatures.
Most of Italy is also on red alert as sunbathers soak up the sunshine. Sweeping restrictions are being enforced to help keep people safe with officials setting up cooling stations around historic landmarks like the Eiffel Tower and Rome’s famous fountains.
The hottest temperatures are expected to hit the south of France this week with areas like Bordeaux and Lyon basking in sunshine. At least 49 of the country’s 96 mainland departments are on the highest heat red alert for today and tomorrow, according to Meteo-France.
