It’s well known : the weather is always better by the sea, especially in the evening, after a day at 32°C near Marseilles (Bouches-du-Rhone). So we take the opportunity to have picnics on the beach. “It’s suffocating me, I’m sweating”testifies a little boy. “It’s unbearable but we drink a lot of water and then there we go”says a young man. In the Bouches-du-Rhône, heat records were recorded last night. Tarascon, for example, experienced its hottest day since 1990, with just over 26°C.
In Toulouse (Upper Garonne)the town hall has decided to open the parks and gardens in the evening to allow residents to cool off. “It’s the only time of the day when you can get some fresh air, get some fresh air and meet up with friends”says a young girl. A family decided to eat in the open air so as not to suffocate in an apartment.
