The Czech Republic experienced a new national temperature record on Saturday, with 41.1°C (106°F) recorded in Doksy, Litoměřice. This marks the first time a temperature of 41°C has been officially measured within the country’s network of meteorological stations, according to the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute (ČHMÚ). Authorities indicate the recorded temperature may still rise. However, a cold front is approaching, bringing showers and strong thunderstorms to western Czechia in the afternoon and evening. These storms are expected to spread to other regions by Monday, offering a respite from the extreme heat. The rapid shift in weather follows days of unusually high temperatures across the nation.
