Heat Wave in Europe: Impact Power Grid, Health, Crops
00:00 Temperatures across Western Europe are expected to be ten degrees above the norm in coming days. The heatwave has been triggered by a blast of hot air from North Africa. It's expected to stress power systems and has triggered health alerts. Joining me now is Joe WERTZ, Bloomberg's weather and climate reporter. Joe, thanks for joining us bright and early around the studio, around the desk. What can we expect that it's going to be scorching, but there's going to be impacts for that kind of on a human personal level, but also on a on a company level and for the energy grid itself. Yeah, that's right. So it is it's going to be super hot. It's already been super hot. Look, I mean, the this get this high pressure system in its we don't only have kind of a change of of the winds that normally blow westerly that are now blowing up from the south that we bring in in this hot blast of air from from North Africa that you mentioned. Also the high pressure is really clearing out all the clouds. So we've just got the sun just just just baking everything. So, yeah, stress in the energy grids. We've got operators in France, you know, that have have warned that the rivers there might be getting warm, that it's the same rivers that they rely on for cooling the nuclear plants there. So energy grid stress from that, plus increased cooling demand. And this thing is just sitting over Europe and just just just baking in it. How long is this expected to last and what is the impact going to be on agriculture? Yeah, we've already seen some impact from agriculture and farming. It's kind of a crucial time for some farmers in a lot of parts. You know, we should see it here for the next couple of days. Really, France is getting right in the bull's eye of this this this this heat dome effect. Temperatures there well north of 40 degrees and some of the central areas. And, you know, it's you mentioned impact on human health, which is a big deal. We've got, you know, heat health alerts, basically covering parts of the UK, big, big areas of Spain, nearly all of France. And, you know, the temperatures are going to be hot during the day, but they're also not going to cool off in a lot of these areas at night. That's come, you know, makes for uncomfortable sleeping conditions for a lot of folks. But that also doesn't give folks, you know, the relief, the cooling relief that you typically get at night, which is a major, you know, health risk for especially vulnerable people, kids or older folks. Yeah. Or folks with medical conditions. We're talking some in some areas of nighttime temperatures of 25, 25 degrees. Absolutely. Even warmer in some areas, too. So just no relief at night from this. You know, luckily we've got a lower pressure system coming in that might it should bring in a little stormy or weather some more clouds. That should also clear out that high pressure and drop temperatures a little bit. But we got a couple more days of this in store.

UK 'to be hotter than Barbados' with temperatures expected to hit a record-breaking 34C
The UK could see one of the hottest June days on record today, with temperatures reaching a scorching 34C. Since 1960, UK temperatures in June have surpassed 34C in only three years, with the hottest being 35.6C, recorded on 28 June 1976. It will be the fourth day of a heatwave for much of England, which is forecast to be hotter than holiday spots in Barbados, Jamaica and Mexico. Wimbledon is set for its hottest ever opening day, with temperatures expected to beat the previous record of 29.3C set on 25 June 2001. The hottest day of the tournament was seen on 1 July 2015, when temperatures reached 35.7C. Find out the latest weather forecast It could also be a tropical night, with parts of England staying above 20C overnight into Tuesday, the Met Office said. On Tuesday parts of southeast England could hit 35C, though Scotland and Northern Ireland face heavy rain and cooler temperatures. An amber heat health alert came into force on Friday - the second in two weeks. The alert, which covers London, the East Midlands, the South East, the South East and the East of England, lasts until 6pm on Tuesday. The UK Health Security Agency also issued a yellow alert for Yorkshire and the Humber and the West Midlands for the same period - warning of significant impacts on health and social care services. An amber alert was previously issued for all regions in England on 19 June, the first time it had been used since September 2023. An official heatwave is recorded when areas reach a certain temperature between 25-28C for three consecutive days. The threshold varies across the UK. London Fire Brigade assistant commissioner Thomas Goodall said London "is already facing its second heatwave of the year" and warned "high temperatures and low rainfall in recent months means the current risk of wildfires is severe". He said firefighters have responded to around 14 wildfires in the capital so far this year and said it is "important everyone acts responsibly to prevent fires from occurring". "As the weather has been so dry, it only takes a few sparks to lead to a fire spreading rapidly," he said. "In London, this can be dangerous because so many of our green spaces lie close to homes and other properties." Read more: It comes after major heatwaves across southern Europe left Spain, Portugal, Italy and Greece in sweltering conditions of more than 40C over the weekend. Temperatures were well above average in parts of southern Spain, with 46.8C recorded in Tresviso. Two-thirds of Portugal was on high alert for extreme heat and wildfires, while several Italian regions banned outdoor work during peak hours of sun on Sunday. The Italian health ministry also placed 21 out of 27 monitored cities under its highest heat alert, including top tourist spots Rome, Milan and Naples. Greece was on high wildfire alert because of the extreme weather, after a large wildfire broke out south of Athens on Thursday, which was fanned by strong winds and damaged several houses.
