Top of the agenda for leaders in France and Spain are addressing the wildfires which have caused displacement and destruction in their countries.
Just moments ago, French President Emmanuel Macron began a crisis meeting to discuss the country's response to wildfires, with one blaze around nine miles (15 km) from the south of Bordeaux.
Speaking on Saturday, Macron vowed to rebuild and repair damage from fires, adding that his government would "be there for as long as is needed".
In Spain, Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez is visiting the areas affected by Castellón forest fires including Vall d'Uixó, a town near Valencia where as many as 6,500 hectares have been scorched.
Another heatwave in France is set to complicate efforts to tackle the blaze near Bordeaux, with weather forecasts predicting highs of up to 40C this week.
Eric Brocardi, spokesman for the National Firefighters Federation of France says that in order to control the fire, it would need to rain "heavily for three days".
Hadja Lahbib, the EU's commissioner for crisis management, warns that more wildfires are likely as the summer goes on, adding, "Forecasters are predicting, unfortunately, another heatwave so we can expect other wildfires."
She also tells the BBC that damage from ongoing wildfires in Europe will likely surpass previous records.
"Last year, one million hectares burned during the summer and so we are expecting to face another historical, sad record because the season has started earlier in the year," Lahbib says.
An estimated 220,000 people have been evacuated from their homes in the Gironde region in south-west France.
Another 105,000 have left their homes in Spain, as our previous post details. Many have spent the weekend in make-shift shelters in sports halls and exhbition centres.
