France's national weather service issued its highest-level danger alert Thursday as it warned that parts of the country could expect temperatures to reach an"exceptional peak" Friday amid a record-setting heat wave in Europe.
"A heat wave of this amplitude so early in the year, in June, is exceptional," Meteo France meteorologist France Christelle Robert said."We should expect more intense and frequent heat waves with climate change, because it will accentuate the extremes." In France, a red extreme weather warning advises extra precautions for children and older people and cautions that even those in good health are at risk of heat stroke.
Firefighters said temperatures over 30 degrees Celsius , low humidity and high winds fanned the flames.
