Did you miss the news this early morning? We’ve put together a recap to help you see things more clearly.
The weather alerts are linked this summer. After the heat wave, it is the turn of the storms to worry. The weather this Tuesday will thus be dominated by a strong stormy deterioration around the Gulf of Lion, with five departments placed in storm orange vigilance.
The departments concerned are Tarn, Aveyron and Aude from 4 p.m., then Hérault and Gard from 6 p.m., according to the first morning bulletin from Météo-France. These storms will be accompanied by strong electrical activity, heavy hailstorms and heavy accumulations of precipitation.
As a particularly polarized ballot looms on October 2, the two favorites for the Brazilian presidential election are entering the arena today. Lula and Jair Bolsonaro officially launch their campaign in places that have had a profound impact on their political careers.
A favorite in the polls, Lula is going to visit a Volkswagen factory in his stronghold of Sao Bernardo do Campo, an industrial area where he was a turner-miller, before becoming a union leader. Jair Bolsonaro will travel to Juiz de Fora, where he had been close to death in a stabbing attack four years ago. The two candidates have already been crisscrossing the country for several weeks, but the official campaign, with meetings and distribution of leaflets, is only authorized from this Tuesday. The TV spots will only be aired from August 26.
And another medal of the most beautiful color in Rome for the Blues. At the European Swimming Championships, France now has eight podiums, including three on the top step. On Monday, Maxime Grousset, Charles Rihoux, Charlotte Bonnet and Marie Wattel were crowned European champions in the 4×100 freestyle mixed relay. With a time of 3 min 22 sec 80, the Tricolores won ahead of Great Britain (3: 23.30) and Sweden (3: 23.40).
