'We could see record breaking temperatures in September'
The Met Office says there is the "potential for some very warm conditions" this month as other forecasters predict parts of the UK could see 38C autumn heatwaves.
"I do not think we will be getting our warm woolies out just yet.'' He added: "It is more likely than not as this has become the fashion in summer months, and it is long overdue in the north.'' He said: "The all-time record from 1906 of 35.6C could therefore be at risk or notably breached during the EARLY part of SEPTEMBER on the basis of some quite high confidence and repeated forecast projections for this period.
"These showery conditions are expected to become more widespread into the weekend, with even some northern areas possibly seeing rain or showers at times. It will also become more humid, especially in the south and east, with potential for some very warm conditions.
