Europe is set to swelter© WXCHARTS
Holiday hotspots beloved by Brits are set to be hit by 50 degree heatwaves. A complex computer run global forecast system has officially predicted that on July 28 the 50 barrier could be hit in southern Portugal.
This would break the continental record of 48.8C, set back in August 2021 near Syracuse in Sicily. The forecast, reported by the Daily Mirror, also predicts that Spain could see temperatures in the high forties, as yet another massive heatwave swings across Europe this summer.
World cup winning Spain is set to bake at around 48C, with coastal resort towns like Benidorm only a little bit cooler at 45C.
