After enduring the coldest July month in over two decades, Denmark looks poised to bask in the sunny rays of a hot August.
According to weather predictions from TV2 Vejr, the summer heat is set to continue through this week and perhaps into the next.
According to the forecast, there will be ample sunshine this week and temperatures will be in the mid to high 20s.
The conditions will be harder to predict beyond next weekend, but there is a chance that the good weather will continue.

20 summer days so far
With temperatures shooting up over 30 degrees in many parts of the country over the weekend, Denmark is officially in a heatwave for the third consecutive summer.
So far this summer there have been 20 ‘summer days’ – days with temperatures measuring at least 25 degrees recorded at least one of the official measuring stations – but only two of them were in July.
Of those 20 summer days, four have been classified as being ‘tropical days’ – when temperatures reached at least 30 degrees.
The heatwave has also lifted the national average temperature of coastal bathing water to 20.4 degrees.
