Overview

The heat wave dubbed Lucifer[4][5][6] (the Italian public had dubbed the hot spell "Lucifero".[1]) or Jolanda[7] (by the Deutscher Wetterdienst) was an extreme heat wave that affected Southern Europe in 2017. It started at the end of July,[7] and lasted till the fifth of August,[8] before conditions gradually began to cool down again. Some countries that were affected included Poland,[2] Switzerland,[2] Italy,[1][2] France,[2] Croatia,[2] Hungary,[1][2] Romania,[1][2] Portugal,[2] Spain,[1][2] Montenegro,[2] Albania,[1] Serbia,[1] Greece[1] and Turkey. Those countries experienced temperatures of {{convert|40|C|F}} or more, killing at least five people in the process. The remainder of August was very warm, with temperatures around {{convert|30|C|F}}, but not dangerously hot as it had been earlier on in the month. It fueled dozens of wildfires, damaged crops, reduced water supplies (exacerbating droughts in Sicily, Spain, Parma and Piacenza[9]) and strained power supplies.) and strained power supplies.[1]

Many unusually high August temperatures were recorded in much of Spain and Portugal, southern France, Italy, the Balkans and Hungary.[2]

The June 2017 Portugal wildfires forest fires began in the Pedrógão Grande municipality on June 17–18, before spreading dramatically in the heat and thus causing a firestorm.[11] It ended with 64-66 dead, over 250 injured and 40 evacuated villages.[3]
