## Resource

UK braces for record-breaking heat as a rare red weather warning looms, threatening school closures and straining health services. Temperatures could soar to 37°C—possibly 40°C—in parts of England and Wales, with stifling humidity and little nighttime relief. Teaching unions warn that under extreme conditions, schools may need to shut down for safety, challenging the government’s stance that attendance is vital. Health officials sound the alarm over rising risks for vulnerable populations, urging widespread caution as climate extremes reshape daily life.
