Europe: Severe Weather and Wildfires

Severe heat and major wildfires are currently impacting parts of Europe, particularly Greece, Italy and Croatia. Fires can move rapidly and be unpredictable. Air quality may deteriorate due to heavy smoke.

New Zealanders are advised to follow any instructions issued by the local authorities, such as Fire and Rescue services (including evacuation orders), and to monitor the media to keep up to date with local developments. New Zealanders should stay in contact with family and friends to keep them informed of your plans and well-being.
