Brits are set to bake in 30C heat today as forecasters warn this ‘brutal’ summer could be the hottest on record.
Sweltering temperatures may be here to stay throughout July and August, with early models suggesting a heat dome — a mass of stagnant hot air — is developing over Europe.
The mercury peaked at 31.7C in the village of Wisley, Surrey, yesterday and is expected to cool tomorrow and Friday before temperatures soar again until at least Tuesday. There is around a 30% chance that the current heat record – 38.7C set in Cambridge in 2019 – could be broken.To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser thatWell, that’s one way to cool off
Spokesman Rod Dennis said: ‘If temperatures were to go as high as around 40C, as some are predicting, then people should question their decision to drive in the first place.’
