It looks like we're in for some seriously hot weather in certain parts of the country. The temperatures are expected to keep climbing in the coming days, as parts of the UK prepare for a potential heatwave that could last all week. Just yesterday, some areas saw temperatures reach a sweltering 28.3°C, leading the Met Office to issue yellow heat health alerts across most of England.
The heat is expected to keep rising over the next few days, with Thursday possibly being the hottest day yet. However, the Met Office has cautioned that it won't be all sunshine and clear skies in the meantime. Tomorrow, there might be some patchy fog in the south, but it's expected to clear up and leave us with a lovely day filled with light winds and plenty of warm, sunny spells.
This week, we can expect highs of up to 31°C as temperatures continue to soar across the UK. However, Scotland and Northern Ireland might see some cloudier conditions and even some showery rain on Tuesday afternoon. The highest temperatures are still predicted to be in the southeast, with parts of London possibly reaching a scorching 30°C. Other regions can expect temperatures ranging from a pleasant 25 to 28°C.
Out of all the days this week, Wednesday is shaping up to be the hottest. Most of England can expect temperatures in the mid-to-high 20s, with some areas in the southeast potentially hitting a sizzling 31°C. But keep an eye out for some isolated heavy showers in western parts of the country, like northern Wales and northwestern England.
Mark Sidawa, Deputy Chief Meteorologist at the Met Office, has reminded us that even though we can look forward to some warm temperatures, it might not be the picture-perfect sunshine and blue skies we imagine. There could be some clouds hanging around in certain areas. In fact, in central and eastern England, temperatures might even surpass the heatwave criteria. But officially, to be classified as a heatwave, the temperature needs to reach a certain level for three consecutive days. So let's enjoy the warmth, but not expect anything too extreme or out of the ordinary.
