Ireland’s Record-Breaking Heatwave

Ireland’s sweltering heatwave is here — record-breaking temps up to 34°C could bake the country this week, fueled by a heat surge from North Africa. Officials warn of heat stress, especially for the elderly, and urge lifeguard-only swimming zones to avoid deadly hidden dangers. Across Europe, France and the UK are also grappling with deadly heat, with schools shut and crisis meetings underway. Thursday’s peak heat will bring stifling humidity, but relief may arrive with rain hitting western areas by Thursday night. Stay cool, stay safe — and check on your neighbors.
