欧洲太热,德国的高速公路都快热化了~
Europe is facing a heatwave so hot that Germany fears its highways will melt'Hell is coming,' said Silvia Laplana, a television weather presenter Cars stuck in a traffic jam on the A9 highway in Munich, southern Germany, as Pentecost holidays started on June 7, 2019.SINA SCHULDT/AFP/Getty Images 6park.comHot air from the Sahara will send temperatures above 40C in several locations on the continent tomorrow and Friday — the highest point of the heat spike — meteorologists warned.
In Germany, where forecasters have warned a June record of 38.5C could be smashed, temporary 100 km/h speed limits have been imposed on some usually unregulated stretches of autobahns, for fear the road surface may break up in the heat and become unsafe. A forest fire raged north of the city of Cottbus, in Brandenburg state, in an area already hit in 2018. The blaze was deemed particularly dangerous due to unexploded ammunition left in the area, which is home to a military training facility.
Meanwhile, schools closed early and Germans flocked to lakes to cool down. In Austria, Vienna’s famous horse-drawn carriages were taken off the streets yesterday to protect the animals from the sun.
Temperatures are expected to be particularly unbearable in the northeast of Spain, with a stifling 113F (45C) expected Friday in the city of Girona, and 44C in Zaragoza at the weekend. Five northern provinces were placed on an “orange alert” for a heatwave today, with another five to be added by the weekend.
“Hell is coming,” Silvia Laplana, a television weather presenter, said. “Of course, it’s hot in summer but when you have a heatwave that is so extensive and intense, during which records are forecast to be beaten, it’s NOT normal,” she added. 6park.com 6park.com 6park.com
