28.06.2025The Day the Heat Dome Expanded
France's heatwave intensified dramatically, with orange alerts expanding from 14 to 53, then to 73 departments by day's end, covering nearly the entire country as temperatures approached 400C. This escalating heat, part of an ongoing "heat dome" phenomenon, led to some school closures and highlighted public health concerns. Concurrently, the Budapest Pride march defied a government ban, drawing a record 180,000-200,000 participants and evolving into an explicit "anti-Orban" demonstration against the Hungarian government. Domestically, new smoking restrictions came into effect Sunday, banning cigarettes at beaches, parks, and bus stops, though café terraces were exempt. Marine Le Pen urged National Rally parliamentarians to prepare for potential Assembly dissolution, signaling political anticipation as Macron regains dissolution powers.
