Apparently looking at figures the pattern is similar to that of 2003 (not that that necessarily means anything). 2003's summer resulted in many deaths across France and cenral europe due to the heat.

Had a little sparrow give up the ghost yesterday on the concervatory roof. I presume it was brought on by the heat.  |

I think that qualifies as a heat wave
Incidentally does anyone know who coined the phrase "sweating like a pig", as far as I know our porcine brethren dont actually sweat at all !

Hi
Very glad the weather mans on our side, now if he can make sure the weather is great last week in June and First week July I will be happy, for I'm off to Norfolk.
About the Pigs don't know if they sweat, but I understand they get sun burnt.
Mick
