Europe is gearing up for highs of 47°C as a heatwave sweeps the content ☀️
Health ministry officials have issued red alert warnings for ten major cities in Italy, including Florence and Rome.it poses a health risk to the whole populationItalian politician Nicola Fratoianni said: ‘We are facing an unbearable heatwave. Dying from the heat is unthinkable – we should be taking measures to avoid tragedies like this in the hottest hours of the day.
Carlo Cacciamani, head of Italy’s national meteorological and climatology agency, said the unusually hot weather hitting the country is because the Cerberus anticyclone has pushed out a colder weather system from the Azores which usually influences summer weather in Italy. ‘This is happening more frequently and means we see temperatures around 40°C instead of the normal 30-31°C,’ Cacciamani told‘The world just had the hottest week on record, according to preliminary data,’ the World Meteorological Organization said, with high temperatures having ‘potentially devastating impacts on ecosystems and the environment’.
Research published on Monday found that more than 61,000 people died due to the heat during Europe’s record-breaking summer last year. Most people who died were over the age of 80, and about 63% of those who died due to the heat were women, according to the research published in the journal Nature Medicine.
