European wildfires rage as fourth heatwave looms
Firefighters in France and Spain are battling widespread wildfires as Europe faces its fourth successive heatwave of the year, with temperatures expected to reach 40 degrees. More than 125,000 hectares have been scorched in Spain and over 115,000 in France, with the fires creating their own weather formations including dry lightning and gale force winds. Despite the incoming heatwave, forecast wind reductions offer hope for containment by week's end.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
