Marea Britanie înregistrează cea mai caldă zi din an. Țara se confruntă cu al cincilea val de caniculă din 2026

On Thursday, London recorded its hottest day of the year at 38.1 degrees Celsius, surpassing the previous record set in June. The UK is experiencing its fifth heatwave of 2026, with forecasts indicating the heat will move eastward by the weekend. The extreme temperatures have led to health concerns, particularly for nurses working in older buildings without adequate cooling. Additionally, the country faces widespread drought affecting crops and water resources, prompting calls for water usage restrictions. The government is also addressing the risk of wildfires, with over 1,000 incidents reported this year.
