> a French "hot" day is 'only' 38-40C.

In the place I live (Brittany/west part of France), a hot day is more like 25°C.

Yes. I was referring to the heatwave in 2018 where the temperatures hit 40C in a few places in (central?) France, vs. "typical" Australia where it's 45C+.

Also Australia doesn't have anything like the number of size of major rivers that France, and continental Europe has.
