France braces for heatwave with temperatures up to 35°C

France is entering a period of intense heat due to a heat dome, with temperatures rising by 10 to 15 degrees.

France is set to experience several days of intense heat after weeks of mixed weather. An anticyclonic blockage is causing an early heat episode, with highs exceeding 30°C in many regions and reaching 35°C in the Southwest.

Forecasts indicate the hot spell will last at least until Wednesday. La Chaîne Météo notes that the strong heat threshold will be exceeded across numerous areas, with no sudden change expected.

A slight drop may follow later in the north due to a northeast wind, but temperatures will stay above seasonal norms. The dominant trend points to hot, dry and sunny conditions through next weekend.
