A heatwave gripping much of Europe is intensifying today, with temperatures expected to soar to 40°C in parts of France and Spain, while thunderstorms and heavy rain threaten disruption in the Netherlands, Ireland, and Finland. France’s national weather service Météo-France has placed 26 departments on orange alert for extreme heat, warning that the mercury could reach 40°C locally in the coming days . Meanwhile, Spain’s meteorological agency AEMET has activated alerts across multiple regions, forecasting 42°C in some areas as a Saharan air mass combines with an anticyclonic ridge and a low-pressure system to create dangerous conditions .
In Central Europe, Germany’s Hesse region is also under heat warnings, with Frankfurt and surrounding areas bracing for temperatures nearing 38°C . Romania is similarly affected, with the country’s first extreme heat episode of the season expected to push temperatures to 35-36°C from the weekend, particularly in Banat, Crișana, and western Oltenia . The Netherlands, meanwhile, faces oppressive humidity and thunderstorms, with a code yellow warning in place until Saturday as temperatures climb to 35°C .
Ireland’s weather service Met Éireann has issued rain warnings for Cork and Kerry, forecasting widespread showers and potential spot flooding through the weekend . In Finland, where Midsummer celebrations are underway, temperatures are set to reach 25°C, though heavy rain is expected to disrupt outdoor festivities in some areas .
The extreme weather is already straining infrastructure and public services. In Vienna, residents in 140 homes across Penzing and Ottakring will be without hot water from 25 to 29 June due to district heating maintenance, with temporary shower facilities provided in containers and at SK Rapid’s facilities . In Belgium, students are navigating exams under an unprecedented climate of uncertainty as the country’s education system grapples with logistical challenges amid the heat .
Meteorologists warn that such early-season heatwaves are becoming more frequent, with experts urging caution in interpreting weather forecasts and advising the public to adapt routines—such as adopting siestas or avoiding midday outdoor activities—to mitigate risks .

OTSEÜLEKANNE ⟩ Kui kraanist enam vett ei tule: kuivkäimla kui tuleviku ja ka kriisiaja lahendus Enamik meist vajutab potinupule ega mõtle hetkekski, kuhu kõik edasi läheb. Vesi vuliseb, mure kaob ja elu läheb edasi – vähemalt seni, kuni kraanist vett tuleb ja torud töötavad. Aga mis saab siis, kui ühel päeval enam ei tule? Kas vana hea kuivkäimla võib osutuda hoopis tulevikutehnoloogiaks, mitte mineviku jäänukiks? Puhta Vee Teemapargis peetav konverents «Sitt ja Linn» lubab sellele üllatava vaatenurga.
