Before July and August, traditionally Jersey's two hottest months, had started, the island had already experienced a pair of heatwaves and record temperatures.
Climate change caused by humans has made heatwaves more frequent, intense, and last longer.
While some people enjoyed spending time on the beach during the hot weather, for many others temperatures over 30C (86F) in May and June were more of an endurance.
With Jersey now in the middle of its third heatwave in less than two months, and more hot weather increasingly likely, how can the island prepare its public buildings and homes?
Jersey had its hottest ever May and June this year, when it hit by what Jersey Met described as "unprecedented heat".
