Summary
Two teens lost their lives in tragic open-water incidents as Britain swelters under a relentless heatwave, prompting urgent safety warnings from police. With temperatures soaring past 30°C, the danger isn’t just in the water — extreme wildfire risks have escalated to “extreme” levels in London, and water companies are now enforcing hosepipe bans across the east of England due to critically low supplies. Officials stress that even strong swimmers can vanish in seconds, reminding everyone that this scorching weather is unpredictable and deadly. Stay safe — the heat isn’t cooling down anytime soon.
