Met Office Gives Verdict on London Heatwave as Temperatures to Rise to 30C
- A 30C heatwave is forecast to hit much of the UK from June 21 to June 23, with London expected to be hotter than Ibiza or Barcelona this week.
- This heatwave follows a late start to summer driven by high pressure extending from the Azores, while some unpredictable northern showers remain possible.
- Temperatures will rise steadily through the week, peaking at 32C on June 22 in some areas, including Midlands and southern regions, with nights remaining warm.
- Authorities advise residents to limit strenuous activity during peak heat, stay hydrated, wear sun protection, and check on vulnerable people amid high UV and pollen levels.
- The extended warmth suggests a possible record-breaking summer, as bookmakers reduce odds and the Met Office anticipates persistent dry, sunny conditions across much of the UK.
