Haven't seen anything yet, coming week is expected to roast the Balkans

A scorching air from North Africa will begin to include large parts of Europe this weekend in what is being described as a catastrophic heat interval “ ”, thus said by a meteorologist.

The strange weather event from the rare wind of syrocos will bring devastating conditions from the Sahara Desert over southern Europe, writes British medium “Express”.

Italy is expected to experience the first heat explosion Sunday before the high-pressure area spreads southeast towards Greece, Bulgaria and Turkey.

Forecasts predict the Mercedes to explode at 40 degrees Celsius this weekend before climbing 45 degrees Celsius and even 50 degrees Fahrenheit [50 ° C] by the end of next week.

The highest temperature ever in Europe was registered on July 10, 1977, when the scythe reached 48 degrees Celsius in Athens, Greece.

Recent maps point to Europe's extreme weather system.

Fever graphs show large areas of southern Europe receiving a dark red shade over the next seven days.

Jan Schenk, head of The Weather Channel in Germany, said: “A catastrophic heat wave is heading towards southern Europe and prepared for temperatures of up to 50C for next week, the temperature record across Europe could break.

It's actually 48 degrees Celsius.

“What will happen? The sirok wind will blow too hard from North Africa to Italy and as far as Romania and will push this Sahara air to Southeast Europe.

And at one point, it will be impossible to make the distinction between different air measures and then it will be as hot in Greece as it is in the Sahara and then we will experience intense heat and we will see temperatures rise to 43C in 45C and in some areas 50C are possible. “

Sirok winds are native to North Africa and the Mediterranean.

Matt Office describes weather winds as hot and dry “and often carries a lot of powder”.

The extreme weather phenomenon also comes with an increase in the risk of fires across the continent.

The catastrophic weather events have been seen across Europe in recent weeks, with bush fires in Russia and heavy flooding in Belgium, Germany, and Italy.

Schenk added: “below heat, the risk of forest fires will also increase.

The danger could hardly be higher as it is, and for that reason we would have to wait for fires to happen in the woods.

“Viti 2021 is already a marked year of forest fires, we already have more fires than in recent years. 2.5 times more. So this is likely to continue. “

Climate change has also caused sea temperatures to rise, with meteorologist saying the Mediterranean has increased by up to three degrees.

He added: “in addition, the water temperature in the Mediterranean is already very high.

“2.5 is 2.5 to 3 degrees above average, and for this reason it is likely to have a strong Mediterranean season in the fall, which are storms similar to storms over the Mediterranean, which can also bring much rain and severe winds.

The water in the Mediterranean is already as hot as the Atlantic Ocean, where hurricanes usually are.

Therefore we are facing a real catastrophe next week, the heat wave will last for about a week. Then it will get a little better, but it will remain hot in Southeast Europe. ”
