Summary

The UK just endured a record-breaking heatwave, with over thirty degrees Celsius for thirteen straight days — and it’s not over yet. While temperatures are cooling slightly this weekend, dry and warmer-than-usual conditions persist. The Met Office reports 28 days above 30°C this year, fueled by a stubborn high-pressure system expected to last another week. But relief is on the way: a northerly shift will bring cooler air and possible showers, especially in the north. Looking ahead to late July and August, forecasts hint at unsettled weather with rain, though dry spells and warmth could return — particularly in the south. Meanwhile, nearly 500 wildfires have already scorched England and Wales, prompting fire chiefs to urge caution, and several hosepipe bans are now in place as reservoirs dip below average.
