At the Olympic Games in Paris, we can see that some athletes are struggling with the heat in France. In some countries, such as Italy or Spain, there are currently some warnings about extreme heat.

Make sure to always drink enough and protect yourself from the sun. In the shade, you can take a closer look at this map of the highest officially measured temperatures in Europe.

    I would love to see where this the actual regions where those temperatures happened.

    I can guarantee the whole of Russia was not that hot.

    The truth of it would be quite revealing. Shame we don’t know.

      I think that would probably be along the Black Sea coast, Caspian sea, and the border with Kazakhstan
