July 2019 was reported as the hottest month in the history of meteorological measurements, becoming the latest proof of the magnitude of the global climate crisis, WWF reports. The data are from the Copernicus European Union Climate Change Program, which analyzes temperature data from across the globe.

A new lowering of the temperatures is coming, which will be felt mainly in Central and Eastern Bulgaria on Tuesday night and Wednesday.
