Temperature has went up to 42 degrees Celsius in Greece as the new hit wave hit the country in the past 24 hours, according to Xinhua.

The thermometer reached 37-39 degrees in eastern Peloponnese and Attica, 41-42 degrees Celsius in Thessaly and 40-41 degrees in the northern parts of the eastern Central Greece, according to the recent predictions of the meteorological service of the National Observatory of Athens.
