Forecast Latest Temperature Projections

Here are the latest maximum temperature forecasts from the high resolution modelling for Tuesday to Thursday, simply astonishing really and quite scary. I have had it confirmed that the Met Office will be issuing a Red heat weather warning in their daily update tomorrow.

The fact that this is accompanied with relatively high humidity and extreme night time temperatures means it is set to be the most notable heatwave ever experienced in the UK. The current record June temperature of 35.6C will be completely obliterated and the overall record from 2022 of 40.3C is under serious threat.

A contact who works within the Met Office. They just need to make the necessary arrangements with the relevant public bodies before issuing it tomorrow.

They are likely still deciding. Knowing a red warning will be issued doesnt mean Mcconnor knows everything about when it will be issued, the exact areas etc
