Toulouse: First Intense Heatwave Of The Summer In France

The Garonne River experiences a heatwave. France suffocates under its first heatwave of the year. Some temperature records are and will be broken during this heatwave, especially in the west. France is 8 to 15?C above normal temperatures for June. This heatwave results from an omega phenomenon where a drop of hot air is blocked by fresh air. Nearly all departments, such as Haute-Garonne (Toulouse), are placed on yellow alert for heat, and sixteen are placed on orange alert. This first heatwave coincides with climate experts stating that limiting global warming to +1.5?C is not achievable as agreed in 2015 during the COP21 in Paris. In Toulouse, France, on June 21, 2025.
