Third extended heat wave within 6 weeks.

The previous one exceeded 40°C, and the buildings not yet had time to completely cool down from that one before the third wave hit.

I was considering putting up a tent in my garden myself, but as I own a ground floor flat, the indoor temperatures did, with the help of some additional cooling measures, thankfully not exceeded 27°C.

A couple of nights ago 2 riders in the Tour de France (from INEOS I thought) also slept on the balcony because their hotel rooms were too hot. Amazing that these athletes, who ride for 3 weeks at insane altitude (not all the time, but still) don't even get a good night's sleep.

    It was the Norwegian Halland-Johannesen twins of Uno-X Mobility that had the great idea.

    All of the teams carry mobile air-conditioners and purifiers, but for unknown reasons Uno-X didn't bring any to their hotel
