A dangerous and potentially deadly heat wave is sending the mercury soaring as high as 113 degrees in parts of Europe this week, According to Nypost.com.

Countries including France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Poland, Belgium and Austria will see record-setting temperatures in the 90s and even higher.

French meteorologist Guillaume Woznica predicted Nîmes and Carpentras in the southern part of the country will peak at 113 degrees on Friday. The average high for late June in Paris is the low 70s.

“The latest forecasts leave little room for doubt: we are heading for a new national record,” Woznica tweeted, according to the Guardian.

Silvia Laplana, a meteorologist with Spain’s state-owned RTVE channel, tweeted a time lapse of the heat wave intensifying as the week progresses.

“El infierno is coming,” she wrote, using the word for “hell.”

Temperatures in Madrid will top 100 degrees Thursday through Sunday — and there’s little respite in sight. The city will remain in the upper 90s all next week.

The heat, high humidity and strong sun will make it feel even hotter, experts said.

The stifling conditions are being brought on by a storm that’s stalled over the Atlantic Ocean and high pressure over Central and Eastern Europe, which is pulling in hot air from Africa, according to Accuweather.com.

In July and August 2003, France recorded nearly 15,000 heat-related deaths in a heat wave that peaked at 104 degrees, France24 reported. (Agency report)
