ROME (AP)-Roadways buckled under the scorching sun in Germany, water levels on the Danube and other rivers dropped and wildfires forced tourists and residents to flee Wednesday as record-breaking heat, blamed for at least 37 deaths, tormented Europe.
Londoners experienced the hottest day in the city's history when the temperature hit 35.4 degrees C, beating the 35 degrees recorded in 1990.Then a British Airways Concorde was forced to make an unscheduled stop in Gander, Nfld., during a flight from London to New York to refuel.
The day's high in Paris, of 39.5 degrees fell just shy of the all-time record of 40.4 degrees set in 1947.
“One can safely say that this is one of the hottest summers of the last 50 years,” said Capt. Alessandro Fuccello, of the Italian air force's meteorology office. He was speaking about Italy, but the heat wave was the hottest in recent memory in much of Europe.
Air conditioning is uncommon in much of northern Europe because it doesn't usually get so hot and it's discouraged in the south, where temperatures are often warmer, with high energy costs.
Exhausted firefighters were battling Portugal's worst wildfires in recent memory. The discovery of two bodies in a burned forest 300 kilometres northeast of Lisbon brought the death toll in that country to at least 14.
Two people in southern Spain died of heat stroke, raising the death toll to 14 in the heat wave stifling much of the country. Among the deaths was a firefighter who had a heart attack Tuesday after battling a blaze.
Forest fires fanned by hot winds near the French Riviera last week killed four people, and a fifth person died in Corsica when he tried to put out a fire near his home.
Belgium's Royal Meteorological Institute predicted it could reach 40 degrees Thursday-the highest temperature it has ever forecast since its founding in 1833-and several rivers were declared off-limits to kayakers because of low water levels.
