⚡️🇫🇷 NEW - Following the heatwave, Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau has announced a 20km/h speed reduction on the A86 motorway in Paris and a ban on vehicles over 3.5 tonnes.
Do you think this kind of measure is useful during a heatwave? #asknostr
🤡 For your information, private jet travel is still authorized.

Finally we fixed the heat
I'm guessing you're from France, lots of news about that country 😉👍.
I hope you don't mind hearing from France, Spain or Palestine. I try to cover the whole world while staying relevant.
engines are cooled by airflow intakes, he's just making it worse. stupid.
What temperatures are regarded as a “heatwave” according to this person? Just curious.
Depends on the regional averages, but generally over 40 degrees Celsius in the south
So France is having over 40 degrees right now across the country?
“Météo-France extended its amber alert to 84 departments on Monday and the same number on Tuesday. Maximum temperatures will be stable around the Mediterranean, where they will be between 37°C and 40°C, with peaks above 40°C. In the rest of the country, they will often be between 34°C and 38°C, very occasionally 39-40°C. Only the departments close to the Channel and the Belgian and German borders will retain temperatures below 34°C."
“A heatwave refers to an episode of high temperatures during the day and night over a prolonged period (at least 3 days) which is likely to constitute a health risk, particularly for vulnerable or overexposed people (definition at the departmental level).”
“No fixed temperature threshold is determined to move from one alert to another; the decision to increase to a red alert is up to Météo-France in agreement with the relevant ministries, including the Ministry of Health.”
Thanks. These are borderline normal temperatures for this part of the year. I was expecting something like 45+ and even that won’t be super unusual.
