As Europe started to sizzle Tuesday at the start of a heatwave that could break records, drivers on Germany’s famously-speedy motorways were ordered to slow down and fans at the women’s World Cup were showered in health warnings.Meteorologists blamed a blast of torrid air from the Sahara for the unusually early summer heatwave, which could send thermometers up to 40 degrees Celsius in some places on Thursday and Friday.
The fire was deemed especially dangerous due to the risk of unexploded ammunition left in the area, which is home to a military training facility.In Spain, TV weather presenter Silvia Laplana riffed on the doom-filled catchphrase “Winter is coming” from the blockbuster Game of Thrones franchise to describe what lay in store for the country.
Temperatures are expected to be particularly sweltering in the northeast, with a stifling 45 degrees expected Friday in the northeastern city of Girona, and 44 degrees in Zaragoza at the weekend. Players and spectators at the women’s football World Cup taking place in cities around France were also being inundated with messages about keeping hydrated.
