France has been experiencing a prolonged heatwave since mid-June 2025, with Météo-France issuing multiple heat alerts across the country. Initially, 18 departments were placed under yellow vigilance on June 18, with the number fluctuating over the following days. By June 21, 13 departments were under orange vigilance, which indicates a higher level of heat risk. The situation intensified toward the end of June, with 14 departments under orange vigilance on June 27. On June 28, the number of departments under orange alert increased sharply to 73, and this number was maintained on June 29 and 30, with 73 departments on Sunday and 84 departments on Monday. The heatwave warnings gradually decreased in early July, with 17 departments under orange vigilance and 13 under yellow on July 3, and further reductions to 14 and 13 departments under orange vigilance on July 4 and 5 respectively. By July 6, only 2 departments remained under orange vigilance. The alerts reflect ongoing efforts by Météo-France to monitor and communicate heat risks across France during this extended period of high temperatures.
