A significant cold front is set to bring a sharp temperature decrease to Europe this week. Exceptionally warm weather, with locally extreme heat, will be replaced by much colder conditions. Temperatures are forecast to fall by as much as 15°C within just one to two days. This rapid change will return temperatures to those typically experienced in the first half of September. The dramatic shift will be felt across Europe as the front moves through. Residents are advised to prepare for the sudden change in weather conditions. This comes after a period of unusually high temperatures across the continent.
