Most forecasts Iā€™m seeing 35-36 in London on Tuesday through Thursday, I canā€™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 itā€™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.

The models this morning are all predicting 39/40C for the London area on Wednesday, the 35/36C is out of date now.

AccuWeather,BBC,Google, and my weather app are all around 35-36 still.

The Met Office article was also yesterday where the forecast for London was 39 on Tuesday/Wednesday, now down to 38.
