It’s the summertime, and for many places, that means it’s hot. Real hot. In fact, several European cities have reported their hottest temperatures ever. France recorded its hottest May ever this year, and a town in the south hit 40 degrees C (104 F) earlier than any previous year. Japan has also recently recorded its worst heatwave in history, and London is currently in the midst of its own hot spell. It’s only hitting 31 degrees C (88 F) today, but we’re not going to judge those poor Londoners for a nice summer’s day. For the UK, 31C is absolutely stifling.
