欧洲正在经历新一轮热浪。[1]法国、意大利和西班牙约9200万人将面临35摄氏度以上的极端高温，[1]而约3亿人（欧洲人口的一半以上）将经历30摄氏度以上的温度。[1]欧盟哥白尼气候变化服务数据显示，欧洲温度上升速度为其他大陆的两倍，[1]西欧刚刚经历有记录以来最热的6月至7月。[1]
德国气象局预报显示，该国高温将逐日升高，周三最高气温34摄氏度，周四升至37摄氏度，周五达到39摄氏度。[1]这是德国今年夏天第三次极端高温事件。[1]极端高温已导致莱茵河水位创历史新低，[1]对水运货物运输和经济造成影响。[1]英国气象局预计该国将创造有史以来最热的夏天。[1]
为应对高温，西班牙部署33000名执法人员管理日食观赏地点，[1]西班牙内政部长费尔南多·格兰德-马拉斯卡表示需要采取"极端预防措施"。[1]
Europe is preparing for another severe heat wave, with approximately 92 million people across France, Italy, and Spain expected to experience temperatures above 35 degrees Celsius[1]. The phenomenon will extend beyond these nations, as roughly 300 million Europeans—more than half the continent's population—are anticipated to endure temperatures exceeding 30 degrees Celsius[1].
The warming trend affecting Europe is accelerating at twice the rate observed on other continents, according to data from the European Union's Copernicus Climate Change Service[1]. Western Europe has just concluded its hottest June-to-July period on record[1]. Germany is experiencing its third extreme heat event of the summer, with forecasters predicting a high of 34 degrees Celsius on Wednesday, 37 degrees Celsius on Thursday, and 39 degrees Celsius on Friday[1]. The intense heat has already caused the Rhine River water level to reach historic lows, disrupting shipping and affecting the economy[1]. Britain's meteorological service projects the country will record its hottest summer on record[1].
Authorities across the region are taking precautionary measures. Spain has deployed 33,000 enforcement personnel to manage viewing areas, while Interior Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska stated that "extreme preventive measures" are necessary[1].
