Should we expect other heatwaves in mid-July or during the summer? 25.06.2026

While the historic heatwave that has been suffocating France since the start of summer is not yet over, many citizens are trying to anticipate the weather for the coming weeks. The question "Should we expect other heatwaves in mid-July or during the summer?" appears frequently in the call for questions launched by franceinfo. Monique Barbut, Minister of Ecological Transition, stated on France Inter that a third heatwave is "very likely until July 14," before confirming this forecast. However, government spokesperson Maud Bregeon qualified these remarks, emphasizing the need to be "extremely cautious" regarding weather forecasts. She specified that the scenario of repeated heatwaves is one of those being considered, but that the state is preparing for all scenarios.
