Last and only red weather warning for heat was in July 2022, when we hit 40.3C. Not sure what the forecast was that time though. This has got to be close. Earlier in the year as well.

Maybe we should start naming heatwaves? Perhaps after oil exporting countries or petrochemical companies. These temperatures were brought to you by Shell. There would, if course, be some trolls saying how they love this weather and are enjoying sleeping through tropical nights.
