Well, it's officially a heat wave now: at least 25 degrees Celcius during five days, of which three have temps above 30 degrees.
Since 1901 we have had 35 official heat waves. The longest one was in 1975 with eighteen days with temps above 25 degrees, plus six tropical days (30+ degrees). Yes, 30+ degrees is regarded as tropical here
