Extreme heat, heat wave

From June 15 to 22, 2022, up to 10 departments in our region were placed under an orange heat wave alert (Ain, Allier, Ardèche, Cantal, Drôme, Isère, Loire, Haute-Loire, Puy-de-Dôme, Rhône). This heatwave, which affected much of France, was particularly intense and occurred early in the season, before the body had time to adapt to summer temperatures.
