France (French: France; [fʁɑ̃s] (listen )), officially French Republic (French: République française; [ʁepyblik fʁɑ̃sɛz]), is a country, or more specifically, a unitary state located in Western Europe, with several islands and overseas territories on other continents. Metropolitan France stretches from the Mediterranean to the English Channel and the North Sea, and from the River Rhine to the Atlantic Ocean. It is often referred to as L'Hexagon ("The Hexagon") because of the geometric shape of its territory and shares borders with Belgium and Luxembourg to the north; northeastern Germany; Switzerland and Italy to the east; Spain to the south and with the micronations of Monaco and Andorra. The nation is the largest country in the European Union by area and the third largest in Europe, only behind Russia and Ukraine (including its overseas territories such as French Guiana, the country becomes larger than the Ukrainian territory). For nearly half a millennium, the country has been a great power, with strong economic, cultural, military and political influence at the European and global levels. For a long time, France played a leading and hegemonic role in Europe (mainly from the second half of the 17th century and part of the 18th century). Over those two centuries, the nation began colonizing various areas of the planet and, during the 19th and early 20th centuries, it came to constitute the second largest empire in history, which included a large part of North America, Central Africa and Western, Southeast Asia and many Pacific islands. It is known as the birthplace of the world's first great encyclopedia, the so-called Encyclopédie, made up of 35 volumes and published between 1751 and 1766, in the midst of the 18th century Enlightenment. The country has its main ideals expressed in the Declaration of Human and Citizen's Rights. The French Republic is defined as indivisible, secular, democratic and social by its constitution.

It is often referred to as L'Hexagon ("The Hexagon") because of the geometric shape of its territory and shares borders with Belgium and Luxembourg to the north; northeastern Germany; Switzerland and Italy to the east; Spain to the south and with the micronations of Monaco and Andorra. The nation is the largest country in the European Union by area and the third largest in Europe, only behind Russia and Ukraine (including its overseas territories such as French Guiana, the country becomes larger than the Ukrainian territory). For nearly half a millennium, the country has been a great power, with strong economic, cultural, military and political influence at the European and global levels. For a long time, France played a leading and hegemonic role in Europe (mainly from the second half of the 17th century and part of the 18th century). Over those two centuries, the nation began colonizing various areas of the planet and, during the 19th and early 20th centuries, it came to constitute the second largest empire in history, which included a large part of North America, Central Africa and Western, Southeast Asia and many Pacific islands. It is known as the birthplace of the world's first great encyclopedia, the so-called Encyclopédie, made up of 35 volumes and published between 1751 and 1766, in the midst of the 18th century Enlightenment. The country has its main ideals expressed in the Declaration of Human and Citizen's Rights. The French Republic is defined as indivisible, secular, democratic and social by its constitution.

France (French: France; [fʁɑ̃s] (listen )), officially French Republic (French: République française; [ʁepyblik fʁɑ̃sɛz]), is a country, or more specifically, a unitary state located in Western Europe, with several islands and overseas territories on other continents. Metropolitan France stretches from the Mediterranean to the English Channel and the North Sea, and from the River Rhine to the Atlantic Ocean. It is often referred to as L'Hexagon ("The Hexagon") because of the geometric shape of its territory and shares borders with Belgium and Luxembourg to the north; northeastern Germany; Switzerland and Italy to the east; Spain to the south and with the micronations of Monaco and Andorra. The nation is the largest country in the European Union by area and the third largest in Europe, only behind Russia and Ukraine (including its overseas territories such as French Guiana, the country becomes larger than the Ukrainian territory). For nearly half a millennium, the country has been a great power, with strong economic, cultural, military and political influence at the European and global levels. For a long time, France played a leading and hegemonic role in Europe (mainly from the second half of the 17th century and part of the 18th century). Over those two centuries, the nation began colonizing various areas of the planet and, during the 19th and early 20th centuries, it came to constitute the second largest empire in history, which included a large part of North America, Central Africa and Western, Southeast Asia and many Pacific islands. It is known as the birthplace of the world's first great encyclopedia, the so-called Encyclopédie, made up of 35 volumes and published between 1751 and 1766, in the midst of the 18th century Enlightenment. The country has its main ideals expressed in the Declaration of Human and Citizen's Rights. The French Republic is defined as indivisible, secular, democratic and social by its constitution.

LA PLATA COUNTY, Colo. — A couple married in Colorado will have a wedding album more unique than most. Michael and Sara Kramer took their wedding photos with the 416 Fire burning in the background. One photo shared on Instagram shows the fire’s massive smoke plume rising from the mountains behind the kissing couple. The couple had to change venues due to the rapidly moving wildfire. “We are in absolute awe of our friends, family, photographer and vendors who made this incredible wedding come to life. The 416 Fire forced us to change venues last minute and it was a little hectic,” they said in an Instagram post. The Kramers expressed their gratitude to crews working on the fire. “Thank you to the firefighters working hard to keep the Durango community safe,” the post read. “What an unbelievable weekend.”

Sara and Michael had it all planned: they'd figured out the venue, they'd set the date. The couple opted for a June wedding in the gorgeous southwestern Colorado area surrounding Durango. Their plans, however, were derailed June 1 when the 416 Fire ignited and quickly grew, placing their wedding venue - the Cascade Village lodge near Durango - into the list of places under a mandatory evacuation. For anyone who's planned a wedding, the last thing you want to hear is that you've got just days to find and set up a new venue for one of the most important (and, let's be honest, stressful) events of your life. But, according to Sara's Instagram post, everyone came together to make the wedding happen - and the couple was able to wed with the 416 Fire ominously looming in the background. While the photo is dramatic and quite something to behold, neither the couple nor their photographer is fine with it going viral without a cause: the area surrounding Durango relies heavily on tourism to help its economy. As of Tuesday, the 416 Fire closed down the San Juan National Park on the city's outskirts. The massive plumes of smoke can be seen for miles and on every newscast in the state. National news outlets have even started reporting on the massive fire that's forced thousands to evacuate. Alexi Hubbell and the couple are asking anyone who is able to donate to the Community Foundation Serving Southwest Colorado.

However, [M]long-range forecasts only give a rough indication of what may happen[/M].
Temperatures in parts of the UK will plunge lower than Iceland as a swathe of freezing Arctic air engulfs the country. Scotland and northern England are likely to see a dusting of snow over the hills as the mercury plunges on Sunday. Frosts are forecast widely during the early hours of Monday prompting warnings to brace for a bitter start to the working week. Overnight temperatures will drop below freezing in rural spots while daytime highs are unlikely to rise much above 16C (60.8F) or 17C (62.6F), experts say. Bitter winds will make it feel close to -7C (19.4F) in exposed spots, colder than the Icelandic capital Reykjavik where temperatures are unlikely to sink below freezing. Britain is about to shiver in the coldest weekend since the Beast from the East snow blast crippled the nation in March. Long-range forecasters warn a nationwide Arctic whiteout could unleash copious amounts of snow across Britain as soon as mid-October. UK weather forecast: Britain faces the COLDEST weekend in six months this weekend UK weather: Temperatures will plunge lower than Iceland Exacta Weather’s James Madden said: “There is a risk for some first flurries of snow of the season at times over the next several days. “However, a more notable wintry blast or two during the second half of October should bring the first significant snow of the season across higher ground in the north, with the risk of an occasional flake or two even to some lower levels at times.” Colder weather later this month will clash with a surge in Atlantic cyclone activity fuelling crippling wintry storms, he warned.

Scotland and northern England are likely to see a dusting of snow over the hills as the mercury plunges on Sunday. Frosts are forecast widely during the early hours of Monday prompting warnings to brace for a bitter start to the working week. Overnight temperatures will drop below freezing in rural spots while daytime highs are unlikely to rise much above 16C (60.8F) or 17C (62.6F), experts say. Bitter winds will make it feel close to -7C (19.4F) in exposed spots, colder than the Icelandic capital Reykjavik where temperatures are unlikely to sink below freezing. Britain is about to shiver in the coldest weekend since the Beast from the East snow blast crippled the nation in March. Long-range forecasters warn a nationwide Arctic whiteout could unleash copious amounts of snow across Britain as soon as mid-October. UK weather forecast: Britain faces the COLDEST weekend in six months this weekend UK weather: Temperatures will plunge lower than Iceland Exacta Weather’s James Madden said: “There is a risk for some first flurries of snow of the season at times over the next several days. “However, a more notable wintry blast or two during the second half of October should bring the first significant snow of the season across higher ground in the north, with the risk of an occasional flake or two even to some lower levels at times.” Colder weather later this month will clash with a surge in Atlantic cyclone activity fuelling crippling wintry storms, he warned.
