Europe's Current Temperature Hotspots: Maps Revealing Highest Heat Levels - Current Temperature Across Europe: Visual Representations of the Areas Experiencing the Highest Heat
Europe is currently grappling with a historic heatwave, with temperatures soaring well above 40°C in numerous regions across the continent. The heatwave, caused by a major Heat Dome pattern, has affected southern, western, central, and parts of eastern Europe, including France, Italy, the central Balkans, Spain, Portugal, and extending northward towards the UK, Benelux, Poland, and Ukraine [1][2].
This prolonged heatwave, expected to continue into mid-August 2025, has led to the breaking of historical temperature records, extensive drought, and worsening wildfire conditions, particularly in southern Europe and Iberia. Cities like Paris, Warsaw, Budapest, Nancy, and areas in the central Balkans are experiencing temperatures significantly above normal [1][2][5].
