Record Heat In Puglia

Volunteers distribute free water to bathers during the hottest hours of the day in Molfetta due to record heat in Puglia at the First Cove in Molfetta on July 22, 2023. Italy's weather is increasingly tropical, and a new anticyclone is expected to arrive early next week, bringing more extreme heat to the peninsula. This is the prediction of Mattia Gussoni, meteorologist at www.iLMeteo.it. '''Charon Bis' is coming, a new African flare-up with the anticyclone bringing temperatures over 45?C in Puglia, with peaks of 48?C, and in Sardinia. All this heat will also warm our seas.'' The Euro-Mediterranean Center on Climate Change predicts a water temperature of 32?C by the end of July, warmer than even the Caribbean Sea. This is, the expert explains, the ''very serious problem of Mhw, marine heat waves, which are becoming more and more frequent with sea water boiling. We have noticed this by bathing in Italy for years now, but this 2023 seems even worse than 2022.'' (Photo by Davide Pischettola/NurPhoto)
