A quick update from Katy on the heatwave currently hitting Italy and what it means for your trip, plus a note on today's Festa della Repubblica national holiday.

Summary: Italy is under Level 3 red heat alerts across Rome, Florence, Bologna and Turin, with temperatures hitting 35 degrees in late May. Katy shares practical tips for traveling in the heat, from shifting your day to beat the midday sun to the free drinking fountains you will find across most major cities. She also covers today's Republic Day holiday, the free museum day it brings, and why the big sites may be worth skipping today in favour of the celebrations.
