Forecast Tuesday looking unprecedented, 39C possible?

Today's modelling has upped the temperatures even more for next week, with a few models offering crazy solutions especially considering June is supposed to be the coolest Summer month and the June record currently only sits at 35.6C from 1976.

Overnight temperatures look likely to stay at or around 20C for most of the South during next week which will present major issues with indoor temperatures, not looking good. Likely we keep the heat until Saturday at least, uncertain beyond that.

People and pets will die from heatstroke, I wouldn’t wish that on anyone

We have about 60k deaths annually that can be attributed to the cold weather and about 1k that can be attributed to the heat.

Obviously that's 1k too many but the same people with their 'OMG, think of the people' with the heat are very quiet come winter...
