Le Bourget and Orly both reporting 40 C.

And I bet it's unbearable. When I lived in Paris, the temp once reached 36°C
(2001 I think) and that was enough. My appartment was on the top floor of of
an eight floor building and opening the windows wide at night did absolutely
nothing to bring down the stifling heat. Sleeping was virtually impossible,
if it wasn't the heat, you got eaten alive by mosquitos.

I pity my ex-colleagues tonight....
