Record books across the world had to be rewritten this week as a series of intense heat waves gripped large sections of the northern hemisphere, headlined by a scorching European heat wave that in some cases shattered records by several degrees—here are the most shocking temperature readings.

The extreme heat wave in Europe was caused by a ridge of high pressure that slowly moved up from north Africa, causing stagnant air while suppressing winds and cloud development. Especially in the U.K., the infrastructure is ill-equipped to handle such significant heat, which led to numerous fires across parts of London while airport runways melted in the stifling conditions.

Climate experts say heat waves are among the most immediate and noticeable effects of climate change, and are likely to become more intense and more frequent in the future.It’s not clear at this point how many deaths will be attributed to the heat waves, but the number could be considerable. More than 2,000 deaths have been confirmed on the Iberian Peninsula alone from heat-related issues.

The U.S. also dealt with sweltering conditions this week, with more than 100 million Americans living in areas under heat alerts, but all-time records were not broken in most cases. Salt Lake City, however, tied its all-time record high Sunday, hitting 107 degrees.
