The UK and France are preparing for their fifth heat wave of the season, with temperatures expected to reach 40°C (104°F) in southeastern France and 36°C (96.8°F) in the UK this week. This follows an intense period of extreme heat across Europe since May, contributing to wildfires, drought, and thousands of heat-related deaths. The June-July period in Western Europe set a new average temperature record of 21.62°C (70.92°F).

"This is a clear example of how climate change is intensifying heat extremes, with heat and drought increasingly reinforcing one another," said Samantha Burgess of the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts.

Globally, 2026 is currently the third-hottest year, with a high chance of becoming the hottest on record due to accelerated human-caused global warming and a supersized El Niño.
