Italy's National Research Council said on the 7th that this past summer was the hottest summer in Italy since records were recorded in 1950. The National Research Council is Italy's largest public research institution. According to German News Agency, its Institute of Bioeconomics analyzed data from the European Mid-Term Weather Forecast Center and found that the average temperature in Italy reached 24.3 degrees Celsius this summer, surpassing the record of 23.6 degrees Celsius set in 2003. Furthermore, the temperature in August this year also set a new record. Lorenzo Arcidiaco of the Institute said that the average temperature in August this year was 25.6 degrees Celsius, surpassing the record of 24.6 degrees Celsius in August 2024. Italy experienced multiple heatwaves this summer, with temperatures soaring in major cities. The Ministry of Health has issued the highest-level red high temperature warning several times, warning that even healthy people may face health risks in extreme weather. High temperatures combined with relatively high humidity make the outdoor environment particularly uncomfortable.
