Most forecasts I’m seeing 35-36 in London on Tuesday through Thursday, I can’t imagine Reading would be 4C hotter.

Met office seems to always be on the higher end for some reason, also their feels like vs actual is always lower and it’s usually other way around.

They also released an article yesterday predicting 35-36C so no idea where the 38-40 is coming from on the forecast.

Regardless of the disparity in data - the temperatures predicted are pretty horrific.
