An anticyclone – a high-pressure area – named Cerberus (named after the monster from Dante’s Inferno) coming from the south will cause temperatures to rise above 40°C across much of Italy. This comes after a spring and early summer full of storms and floods.
The highest temperature in European history was broken on 11 August 2021, when a temperature of 48.8°C was recorded in Floridia, an Italian town in the Sicilian province of Syracuse. That record may be broken again in the coming days.
Fucking hell…! Where abouts are you? Bloody Dubai…? I burst into flames at anything above 28c, I am ginger and of Irish extraction mind, I’m built for fierce mild and drizzle.
Ha ha you sound almost offended by @Enigma 's weather!
Nah, not offended, but I can feel my skin crackling like a Pork Roast at the thought of 30c being jumper weather…shudder! Shite, I need a pint to calm down and cool off…
Yeah not great. This Cerberus thing sounds nasty.
