Germany is experiencing an ongoing heat wave that sets or breaks records across multiple days, according to reporting based on Germany’s meteorological service. Deutsche Welle says the German Weather Service (DWD) records a new maximum for the third consecutive day, citing a latest measurement of 41.7°C (107.06°F). Phys.org reports that Germany’s previous hottest recorded temperature was 41.3°C (106.3°F) and attributes the figure to preliminary data from the weather service, with authorities monitoring the risk of even higher temperatures over the weekend.
Across the reports, the main focus is on the repeated record highs and the expectation that the worst of the heat moves east and begins to ease. The sources do not provide details on where the highest measurements occur within Germany beyond referencing the weather service readings and Germany’s broader heat-wave conditions. Both accounts emphasize that temperatures are unusually extreme for Germany and are being updated as new measurements come in, including the possibility that weekend conditions could bring further peaks.
