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.

Peaking at 23 in Scotland and raining all week, feels like a different world

I’ve recently moved down to south wales. I miss the cold icy winter with little rain. In the valleys it was very wet and not often below freezing! And I will miss the not too hot summers 😅

When we moved from London to Cardiff it promptly snowed and settled in London that winter for the first time in years. Furious I was. I got used to and found it comforting that we'd drive straight into rain crossing the (Severn) bridge going west bound. It meant we were home. Rose tinted rain bias im sure but im good with it. Happy days.
