10:04 pm
as you've just seen from your switches there, that we've had intense heat done in the south western parts of europe. so mainly spain and portugal also north west africa with that is basically going to start lifting its way north, over this weekend and into early next week. and it's a few factors behind it. as mentioned, also not report its been exceptionally dry to the ground is very, very dry, very easy to burn. but that's also good for transporting the heat. and then also maintaining its intensity all the way to places like northern france, even in places like northern england and all the way up to scotland. for example, we've got basically a perfect weather pattern for delivering this heat. also the surface conditions are just primed to break those records. as we said, even higher temperature, as i expected in the coming days, are the forest fires that are happening likely to continue through summer? yeah, we do get wild fires quite regularly across the mediterranean, especially throughout summer, but we've seen in the trend and increasing intensity and more kind of wide spread
10:05 pm
nature of these fires, especially in the last few decades. so yeah, places that experience the high temperatures are more likely to dry, vegetation is easier and faster to burn. it's not the heat that obviously triggers the fire themselves. but basically when we do get mission, whether it's manmade or by natural causes then is something that will then burn faster and harder. and that's what we're seeing across it, not just the mediterranean, but no spinning places further north. i mean, you'd be surprised if we saw more wildfires and even on the british house, for example, talking about spread into places are the record temperatures just hits in europe or is it a world wide issue? so this is very intense. he absolute for western europe is probably the most intense currently, but we've been seeing several events throughout not just this year, but last the years and for tape there would be wrecking record freaking records not by just small margins by enormous margins. and it's not a confined to just europe like last year, for example, in canada and the record breaking eat down there. we've also had intense heat in
10:06 pm
japan and the last couple of months, which was chattering at long standing and very significant records. but it's not just europe, we're seeing a lot, he records tumble across where we are seeing cooler weather, for example. the southern hemisphere is a land media air condition at the moment. austria has be seen, record rainfall is being quite cold. they're also new zealand, for example, but the, the main emphasis that there are far greater number of heat records falling compared to any of these little clays, cold records. and this is all part of anthropogenic climate change. so why are people finding it so difficult to cope to places like the u. k. at, for example, northern france so far away from the mediterranean. we just don't have the same infrastructure as those places that typically get well in the forty's, for example. so fortunately degree heat is not the same here, like in london, and it would be in the south of spain, like the buildings that we live in. just don't cool down this thing are not built
10:07 pm
with the heat in mind. places down in the mediterranean are far more equipped and they build literally everything from noticed the houses, but the roads, the rail, everything infrastructures built to withstand that he only about 0.5 percent of houses that in this country have air conditioning, which is tiny amounts of basically every doesn't have access to the rest by that we need thanks for that explanation. scott duncan, with her ologist in london to some more stories making headlines around the wild flats. try get by there and show rain, have killed at least 12 people in the south. the whole province also done at least $100.00 houses and comes, what is please people are damaged or destroyed. the united nations refugee agency is coordinating 8 efforts french president, manuel mac wrong has been leading commemorations for the 18th anniversary of the round up of jewish residents during the nazi occupation. in 1942 french police
