DE BILT (ANP) - In Eindhoven is de hittekracht woensdag rond 12.30 uur opgelopen tot 10, het hoogste niveau. Niet eerder werd deze hittekracht daar bereikt. Volgens het KNMI komt hittekracht 10 sowieso zeer zelden voor. Op meerdere stations is dit nog nooit gemeten, en op de meeste stations waar hittekracht 10 wel voorkwam, kwam dit slechts eens per vijf tot vijftien jaar voor.

Op meerdere plekken in het land is woensdag hittekracht 9 aangetikt, waaronder in het oosten van Brabant, Flevoland, Zuid-Limburg, Zuid-Holland en rond Amsterdam en Haarlem.

In het noorden en westen van het land is het nog nooit tot hittekracht 10 gekomen en in De Bilt sinds 1991 slechts 4 uur. Sowieso zijn 'hittekrachtpieken' meestal kortdurend, enkele uren. In Eindhoven was de hittekracht even na 12.30 uur inmiddels 9, zegt een woordvoerder.

Hittekracht-index

Ook hittekracht 9 is vrij zeldzaam. Op de meeste weerstations in Nederland, inclusief De Bilt, kwam dit eens per drie tot vier jaar voor. In het zuidoosten vaker, ruim eens per jaar.

Het KNMI lanceerde de zogeheten hittekracht-index op dinsdag 2 juni.

Klamme nachten, tropenroosters en de zoektocht naar verkoeling: het is bloedheet in onze regio. Vanaf woensdag 12:00 is het code oranje vanwege de aanhoudende hitte. Volg via dit liveblog de laatste ontwikkelingen over de hitte.

Controversial agreement under which UK can return people who arrive by small boat will reportedly not be extended

The “one in, one out” agreement on cross-Channel migration between the UK and France is due to end in October, according to French media reports.

Under the terms of the deal, asylum seekers who arrive in the UK in a small boat can be forcibly returned to France, in exchange for others in France who have not tried to cross the Channel being brought to the UK legally.

The UK Competition and Markets Authority's (CMA) investigation into Microsoft's business software ecosystem has attracted a full range of comments from the unsurprising to the hyperlocal. The watchdog is looking at whether product bundling, the alleged embedding of in-house AI products like CoPilot, and licensing practices are limiting UK customer choice. Asking for submissions from customers and rivals allows the regulator to weigh Microsoft's arguments against the concerns and grievances of those customers and rivals. The regulator has now published those comments. Google reckons [PDF] Microsoft is "effectively a gatekeeper and uses its entrenched position to steer captive users toward its own cloud and artificial intelligence (AI) solutions," while Killinghall Parish Council complained [PDF] about an unplanned annual cost of £1,100 due to the purchase of additional Microsoft services "to use Microsoft Teams effectively." The submission stated: "We are concerned that Microsoft's refusal to integrate fully with third-party products creates unnecessary additional costs for Parish Councils." Other comments came from the Browser Choice Alliance [PDF], which stated: "Microsoft's tactics leverage its dominant Windows OS and M365 productivity software suite to frustrate users' choice of browsers." Mozilla complained about Windows 11's habit of defaulting to Edge, particularly during the upgrade flow, and Collabora called on the CMA to "explicitly include both APIs and document format standards (Office Open XML or OOXML) within the scope of the Productivity Software Suite description." "Because Microsoft's own applications handle OOXML formats as de facto standards with undocumented complexities, a significant technical barrier is created for third-party suites trying to interoperate seamlessly." And so it went on, with other businesses such as messaging service Element and browser vendor Vivaldi weighing in, and groups including Open Web Advocacy and the Open Cloud Coalition (previously described by Microsoft as a Google lobby group) having their say. For its part, Microsoft stated [PDF] that it "faces substantial competitive constraints across all five digital activities." In productivity software, it said the likes of Google Workspace and LibreOffice compete "vigorously." Windows faces competition from macOS and Linux, and Linux is a far more widely used server operating system. Databases, such as PostgreSQL and MySQL, compete with SQL Server, and Okta makes a decent fist of Identity and Access Management. Furthermore, "Microsoft's commitment to openness and interoperability is real, deep and growing," and, significantly, the company stated, "AI is making competition more intense, not less." The CMA's investigation could result in a Strategic Market Status (SMS) designation for Microsoft, which would allow the CMA to implement interventions to support competition. The wide-ranging investigation kicked off in May and is looking into Microsoft's provision of business software to UK organizations, as well as bundling, defaults, and interoperability. The CMA stated that it was important for customers to be able to "mix and match software and AI services from a broad range of competing suppliers." And then there's licensing. An SMS designation would allow the CMA to intervene on a concern arising from its cloud market investigation – Microsoft's alleged use of software licensing to reduce cloud competition. The process has a few more months to go. The proposed decision will be published for consultation in October, and the final decision report (and any SMS decision notice) will be published in February 2027. ®

It looks like the plants in this area have been planted randomly and in a variety of colors.
