Time‐series of area‐averaged maximum temperature ( T max ) (top panel), representing the intensity of heat wave, and the corresponding T max anomalies are shown in bars (bottom panel), illustrating the intra‐annual variability of heat waves. The dashed black (red) lines represents climatological temperature + 4 (5) °C, respectively.
