Paris 2024 organisers keep close eye on Europe’s heatwave

The Hindu  

Organisers of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games are paying close attention to long-term weather models, Paris 2024 chief Tony Estanguet said on Tuesday, as swathes of Europe baked again in near-record temperatures. “We are remaining very, very vigilant on temperature forecasts,” Estanguet, a three-time Olympic Champion and President of the Paris 2024 Organising Committee said without giving further details. The 2024 Games will mostly be held in and around Paris, though some events will take place further from the capital, including football at some southern venues and sailing in the Mediterranean waters off Marseille. A contingency plan was in place to adjust schedules, but there were no plans to change any locations, a spokesperson for Paris 2024 told Reuters.
