2026年夏季,欧洲遭遇创纪录高温热浪。世界气象组织8月11日发布公报称,西欧经历了有记录以来最热的6月和7月[1]。西班牙安达卢西亚地区安杜哈尔市测得45.1℃,是今年热浪期间欧洲的最高气温[1];法国西南部朗德省也测得44.3℃,创下法国6月气温历史新高[1]。
极端高温带来严重的人道主义后果。根据欧洲死亡率监测网数据,6月下旬27个国家的超额死亡人数超过1万人[1]。部分国家自5月以来已经历了四轮热浪[1]。面对持续高温,普通欧洲居民采取了各种创新自救措施,包括泡冷水浴、利用无人机吹风等方式度过难关[1]。
Europe is experiencing an unprecedented heat wave in summer 2026, with the World Meteorological Organization announcing on August 11 that Western Europe has recorded its hottest June and July since records began.[1] The temperature extremes have been severe across the continent: Spain's Andújar city in Andalusia reached 45.1°C, marking the highest temperature recorded in Europe during this heat wave period,[1] while southwestern France's Landes department recorded 44.3°C, breaking France's historical record for June temperatures.[1]
The human toll has been significant, with European mortality surveillance data showing that 27 countries experienced more than 10,000 excess deaths in late June alone.[1] Some nations have endured four successive heat waves since May.[1] In response to the extreme conditions, European residents have adopted unconventional cooling strategies, including bathing in cold water and using drones to create artificial breezes.
