In reply to the discussion: 'Potentially Dangerous' Heatwave Set To Strike Europe [View all]GoneOffShore
(17,339 posts)39. Presently in Aix-en-Provence - 26C and 43% humidity at 22h.
The ceiling fans are going, there's one other fan, and the windows are open(having to kill some mosquitoes, but fewer than we had in Philadelphia) with a bit of north to south breeze.

Next week should be better. I hope.
