The heatwave that has plagued southern and western Europe for many days, with extreme temperatures and forest fires such as those in Spain and near Berlin, is now moving towards eastern France and Switzerland.
38 points in Germany
In northern Germany, the worst seems to have happened but the rest of the country is “still sweating”, according to the public meteorological service DWD.
On Saturday, the maximum temperatures, between 30-37 degrees Celsius, were recorded at the Wahoisel-Kirlach stations. Today the thermometer is expected to show “between 30-38 ° C”.
Due to the heat, the fire that broke out on Friday in Brandenburg, near Berlin, continues its destructive work. Nearly three-quarters of the town of Troyenbrücken was evacuated today – meaning about 700 people were evacuated from their homes, according to a Potsdam-Mittelmark district spokesman.
According to local media, the fire has burned about 1,000 acres of forest around the community.
In Paris, the temperature dropped sharply to 16 degrees in the morning, due to the storm that hit the area.
But meteorologists expect temperatures for today that will reach 34-38 degrees in the central and eastern parts of the country, possibly 39 ° C in Alsace.
In neighboring Switzerland, the heat is expected to peak today. Around 15.00 (Greek time) in Geneva the thermometers showed 35 degrees. Nesatel, in western Switzerland, broke the heat record for the season, with 34.7 degrees. The previous record was set in 2019 and was 34.1 ° C.
The temperature is expected to drop slightly but will remain high tomorrow Monday and Tuesday.
