Fictional weather report from 2014 that makes chilling predictions about climate change in 2050 has already come true

It projected that temperatures in Paris could reach up 26C in the morning, before rising to 40C after midday in 2050. Last month it hit 34C before reaching a record 42.6C.

A fictional weather report produced by a French television channel in 2014 has been making the rounds on social media this week after its doomsday forecasts came true 30 years early.

Forecaster Evelyne Dheliat cast a distant warning about the escalating threat of climate change in the video, with one clip featuring high profile weather conditions during the year 2050.

It projected that temperatures could reach up 26C in the morning, before rising to 40C after midday.

But last month the French capital hit a far more extreme 34C by 10am, before reaching its record 42.6C in the late afternoon.

The comparison between the present and 2014’s dystopian weather report was first made by French weekly L’Obs.

It has been circulated as record temperatures were hit across Europe, including in the UK where Mercury soared to 36.9C at Heathrow.

Disturbing satellite images also uncovered vast swathes of the Arctic suffering from “unprecedented” wildfires.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
