After two days of rain, it's sunshine again for the Ile-de-France region. But it's likely to be a real scorcher, as almost 35 degrees are expected in the capital, which is currently hosting the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. 39 départements have been placed under vigilance orange since Monday July 29, affected by a wave of hot air from Spain, heat that will last until Wednesday, to end the month of July in full sunshine, before the return of thunderstorms.
While the hottest day is expected on Tuesday, with high temperatures of around 34 degrees, Monday is already shaping up to be sunny, with the start of the first heatwave of the year and close to 30 degrees. On Wednesday, the mercury will drop very slightly, before stormier weather and, above all, a cooling at the end of the week with more reasonable maximum temperatures.
Although the Paris region is not yet covered by an orange vigilance, Monday's weather forecast could well extend it, said Météo France.
As a reminder, a heatwave is an episode of high daytime and night-time temperatures, where evenings do not fall below 20 degrees, for a period of at least three days. Remember to hydrate regularly, stay in the shade as much as possible, wear hats or caps if you're going to watch Olympic Games events, for example, and avoid physical exertion during the hottest hours.
