The extreme weather is partly due to the Charon anticyclone, which is pushing into Europe from north Africa. It is the second 'heat storm' in a week after the Cerberus weather system hit last Monday.
"Charon" is named after Greek mythology's ferryman of the dead.
据欧洲新闻电视台,由“卡戎”引发的极端热浪预计将持续袭击地中海地区到7月底左右。
The extreme heatwave driven by Charon is forecast to hit the Mediterranean until around the end of July.
