As far as I'm concerned it's been here for the last 6 days (with one
day's break) already!

Does 30-31 C at the end of June represent a "heatwave" ?

But not today - cloudy almost all day, with temperatures only in the
low-mid 20's, though at the cost of 20C dewpoints...

No, and neither does the OED

"heatwave

• noun: a prolonged period of abnormally hot weather."
