A wave of intense heat, and that’s going to last. France, especially the regions located on the axis Toulouse-Lille, via Paris, will experience a heatwave in the days to come. This Thursday, August 6, Météo-France has placed 45 departments in vigilance orange for heat.

temperatures up to 40 degrees in the shade in some areas are expected. The nights will be hot and unpleasant, particularly in urban centres, which retain heat.
