Germany faces historic heatwave with 41.7°C and rising drownings
Germany experienced a severe heatwave, recording a record high temperature of 41.7°C in the town of Nauen in Brandenburg. This marks the third consecutive day during which temperature records have been surpassed. The rising temperatures led to the deaths of 13 people from drowning over the weekend, including two men in Lake Bodesensee, a 14-year-old boy in a lake near Düren, and a 41-year-old man in Düsseldorf. Rescue teams are under pressure due to heat exhaustion and heatstroke cases, with warnings about the dangers of direct sun exposure. Weather experts expect the forecast to change in the coming hours as a cold front arrives, potentially causing thunderstorms, heavy rain, strong winds, and large hail, with rainfall possibly reaching 50 liters per square meter.
