The SIAS agency in Sicily recorded a temperature of 48.8°C in the province of Siracusaon Wednesday, which appears to be a new European record.
“If the figure is validated after the necessary investigation,” 3bmeteo.com meteorologist Manuel Mazzoleni stated, “it may be the highest value ever reported on the European continent.”
“That would exceed the previous record of 48°C set on July 10, 1977 in Athens, and it would even beat the record of 48.5°C set in August 1999 at an unauthorized station in Catenanuova.”
The Lucifer heatwave is now wreaking havoc on Italy, and it is anticipated to climax later this week.
