European heatwave: Switzerland breaks records, Spain reports 327 heat deaths
A deadly heatwave is sweeping eastward across Europe, affecting tens of millions of people. Switzerland broke its record for the hottest June day for the third consecutive day, and two nuclear reactors were taken offline after the Aare River grew too warm to cool them. Denmark also set an all-time temperature record on Saturday, while Spain reported 327 heat-related deaths in a single week. Scientists say a heatwave of this intensity so early in summer would have been virtually impossible without human-caused climate change.
