Starting in late May 2025, parts of Europe have been affected by heatwaves. Record-breaking temperatures came as early as April; however, the most extreme temperatures began in mid-June, when experts estimated hundreds of heat-related deaths in the United Kingdom alone. National records for the maximum June temperature in both Portugal and Spain were broken when temperatures surpassed 46 °C (115 °F), whilst regional records were also broken in at least ten other countries. The heatwaves have fueled numerous wildfires across Europe, causing further damage to ecosystems, property, human life and air quality.

A first analysis (published 9 July 2025 by the Imperial College London) found that around 2,300 people may have died as a result of the extreme temperatures recorded over the 10-day period across the 12 cities analysed. This is around three times higher than the number of deaths without human-induced climate change (800 deaths). It equates to about 65% deaths in the heatwave due to global warming. [3]

On 29 June, one reactor at the Golfech Nuclear Power Plant was shut down due to rising water temperatures in the Garonne. [26] Both the Blayais and Bugey nuclear power plants were also producing less electricity due to the rivers they use for cooling being warmer than normal. [27]

On 30 June, a record-breaking 84 departments were under orange heatwave alerts, with a further seven under yellow alerts; only five departments had no alerts: Calvados, Côtes-d'Armor, Finistère, Manche and Seine-Maritime.

[88] On 16 August, Portugal has also asked for help. [89] The situation continues to worsen in both countries, and there is no rain in sight. The is a EU Civil Protection Mechanism. [88]

According to estimates by the European Forest Fire Information System (EFFIS), around 1570 km² of land have been destroyed in Spain since the beginning of 2025 – around half of that in August alone. In the north-west of Spain alone, 19 forest fires raged that were so large or dangerous to settlements that the affected regions had to request assistance from the Government of Spain. [89]

Spain's national weather agency Aemet informed that temperatures had exceeded 44C in several places on 16 August. It has warned of a very high risk of fires across almost the entire country. [90]

United Kingdom

The Met Office considers a heatwave to be when temperatures on three consecutive days surpass 25–28 °C (77–82 °F), depending on the location. [98] The extreme heat exacerbated conditions for wildfires following what had already been the worst year for them on record in the United Kingdom; this record was broken exceptionally early in the year after the total area burned by wildfires surpassed 29,000 ha (72,000 acres; 110 sq mi; 290 km2) in late April. [99]

Provisional statistics released by the Met Office on 26 August suggested the summer of 2025 had "almost certainly" been the warmest on record. [100]
