Italy placed all 27 cities monitored under its national heat surveillance system on the highest heat alert level on Thursday as a severe heatwave swept across Europe. Temperatures exceeded 40 degrees Celsius in several countries, triggering health warnings, straining electricity and water supplies, and disrupting transport networks. In Rome, residents and tourists sought relief from the extreme temperatures at an urban river beach and cooling stations near major landmarks including the Colosseum and Trevi Fountain. Authorities across Europe are also dealing with wildfires, drought-related disruptions and record temperatures, with scientists warning that prolonged heat events are becoming more frequent and intense due to a warming climate. #italyheatwave, #romeheatwave, #europeheatwave, #extremeheat, #heatwave, #climatechange, #globalwarming, #weathercrisis, #italy, #rome, #europe, #recordheat, #wildfires, #drought, #climatecrisis, #weathernews, #breakingnews, #worldnews, #environment,
