Greece's first heatwave with temperatures rising to 41-43 degrees Celsius. The first scorching heat has struck Greece and according to meteorologists, it will affect especially the mainland while temperatures will be lower in coastal areas.
In an emergency bulletin, the National Observatory's Meteo Weather Service advised that young children, the elderly, and people with health problems should drink plenty of water, take light meals and avoid all unnecessary exposure and physical exertion.
Residents of eastern Europe and Siberia unaccustomed to high temperatures are struggling to cope with heatwaves across the region. The thermometer reached 36 degrees Celcius in Moscow, the highest reading for June since 1906.
While southern European countries have become more accustomed to hot, dry weather such conditions are not common in Northeastern Europe, so they caught governments off guard.
"The frequency of extremely hot summers is increasing because of the influence of humans influence in the planet's climate," said Nicos Crystidis, senior scientist at the Met office of the UK. "How much and how severe the impacts are going to be, depend on the levels of adaption in each particular country."
