Mediterranean holidays face 50°C nightmare: Experts warn blistering temperatures are 'perfectly possible' this summer

Experts warn that temperatures reaching 50°C are perfectly possible in southern Europe during the coming weeks, creating a nightmare for Mediterranean holidays. Simultaneously, the UK bakery chain Greggs may see its summer sales hampered by baking temperatures. This follows a pattern from last July, where warm weather had already impacted the company's performance. These blistering heatwaves are expected to affect both tourism in the south and retail operations within the United Kingdom this summer.
