London Temperatures Set to Leap Stunning Met Office Forecast Suggests
Forecasters say the warm spell could push reservoir levels lower as England remains in drought and several regions face restrictions, officials said.
- High pressure building across the UK will bring a late spell of warm weather next week, with temperatures in south-east England forecast to peak at 26C.
- This balmy period follows the UK's hottest summer on record, according to Met Office figures, with consecutive heatwaves that caused significant droughts and wildfires throughout the country.
- Meteorologists report that while southern areas will see the highest temperatures, most regions will experience warmer conditions than usual for late September due to building high pressure.
- Environment Agency chief executive Philip Duffy warned that reservoir storage remains at 56%, nearly 20 percentage points below average, urging water conservation to balance environmental and agricultural needs.
- Forecasters expect this warm spell to be temporary, with autumn norms likely to return as the nation prepares for potential stormier conditions linked to a developing El Niño.
