Hottest Temperature Ever Recorded In Rome 105F - In June; Highs 15-35F Over Normal In Much Of Europe

[hatrack]

Scorching temperatures have again swept across parts of Europe, with many locations in Italy among those setting June or all-time records for heat.

Temperatures surpassed 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40 Celsius) across much of Italy this week. On Tuesday, downtown Rome hit its warmest temperature on record at 105 degrees Fahrenheit (40.8 Celsius), while several other cities set monthly records. Record-warm temperatures persisted overnight across a large chunk of Eastern Europe. The heat comes during one of the country’s worst droughts in decades and as authorities are rationing water.

The record temperatures are spawned from desert air traveling from the African continent, which has brought excessive heat from Algeria to the Arctic Circle. Slovenia and Croatia both claimed new national heat records. Several other countries, including Finland and Iran, also have experienced new monthly temperature highs.

The heat wave is the latest in a series of extraordinary heat events in the region this year and one of several tormenting the Northern Hemisphere at present — a sign of human-caused climate change. Rising global temperatures have increased the frequency and intensity of heat extremes in these regions since the 1950s, according to the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

1. Climate change hits Italy. The Po River is drying up & Italy's alpine glaciers are breaking up too.

2. It is just more "fake news."

Because climate change is just liberal science because liberals hate freedom..... It is politically incorrect to trust science, data or facts.

The last words out of the last dying Conservative's mouth, as he is cooking and dehydrated will be, "no such thing as climate change."
