Situation
There is an extensive anticyclone over Western Europe and France. The thermal dome associated with this anticyclone extends from the Iberian Peninsula to the west and south of France. This dome of heat should reign over the country at least until the beginning of the week.
The very hot weather will spread into the north and north-east later in the week, with more departments affected by our heatwave warning. The heat will increase from the southwest into the central regions, which could lead to an extension of our red alert. The Paris region may also move to the red alert level..
At this moment, no real drop in temperature is expected. The heat wave will last until at least July 15..
At the same time, increasing drought continues in many regions, increasing the risk of wildfires and fires affecting vegetation.
Air quality is also degraded by high ozone concentrations fueled by intense and prolonged heat.
