Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands have recorded their highest ever temperatures, in a heatwave searing Western Europe. The Belgian town of Kleine Brogel hit 39.9C (102F), the hottest since 1833.
The southern Dutch city of Eindhoven beat the 75-year-old national record, with a new high of 39.3C.
Germany's weather service said a new record of 40.5C - just 0.2C higher - had been set in Geilenkirchen, near the Belgian and Dutch borders. The new German record was still to be confirmed, it said, warning that it could get even hotter on Thursday.

I'm South of Berlin by 500 km, so it's going to get hot here today. Off for my morning walk to the coffee shop.
Is it man made, is it natural? Who gives a fuck we're not going to make it out of the furnace. |
