In Buenos Aires on Tuesday, locals wrapped up in scarves, puffer jackets and wooly hats, and they sipped hot drinks as frost coated cars in the early morning.
“I literally almost froze,“ said Juan Manuel Amnini, a 42-year-old engineer in Buenos Aires who wore a gray wool hat and a face covering against the cold.
In Europe meanwhile, Italy banned outdoor work in some areas, while France shut schools and part of the Eiffel Tower. Spain confirmed its hottest June on record as a severe heat wave gripped Europe, triggering widespread health alerts. In Barcelona, authorities were looking into whether the death of a street sweeper over the weekend was heat-related.
Heat warnings have been issued across large areas, part of a pattern linked to climate change with high temperatures arriving earlier and lasting longer. Asphalt and concrete in cities intensify the impact by absorbing and radiating heat.
“Right now I have a thermal underneath my clothes, a pair of trousers, and another pair of trousers on top of those,“ said Gael Larrosa, a student in Buenos Aires.
“I have a really hard time with the cold. Here the cold kills you, it really kills you.”
