HT-2026-000097-ESP Heat Wave,Spain: A widespread, intense late-June heatwave in Europe has shattered numerous temperature records and had major impacts on human health, ecosystems, agriculture, infrastructure and labour productivity. It is accompanied in some areas by worsening drought and the risk of wildfires, as well as localized violent storms. Extreme heat is expected to occur at increasing frequency and intensity and duration, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Europe is the world's most rapidly warming continent. “Heatwaves like this are what we expect to see in a changing climate,” said John Kennedy, head of climate information at WMO. “In the 50 years since the historic heatwave in 1976, Europe as a whole has warmed by around two degrees. It's the fastest warming continents and extremes of temperature have increased too,” he said. “The IPCC's sixth assessment report showed that hot extremes have increased - in frequency and intensity - over most of the world's land surface and across Europe there is high confidence that there is a human contribution to that observed warming,” he added. The heatwave - which moved up from the Iberian Peninsula - will spread over large parts of Western, Central, and Southern Europe within the next two weeks, according to one of WMO's regional European climate monitoring centres, which is led by the Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD). According to current forecasts, the focus of the heat is likely to shift more towards the Balkans HT-2026-000097-GBR Heat Wave,United Kingdom: A widespread, intense late-June heatwave in Europe has shattered numerous temperature records and had major impacts on human health, ecosystems, agriculture, infrastructure and labour productivity.
