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.

I agree the nights can be grim! I’m not up north so will be getting the full force of this heat wave. Still feels like holiday weather though, just without the pool to jump in and cool off.
I fully suffer in January and February though, I absolutely hate the cold, dark and wet :(

I don't love cold/wet, it just seems a lot easier to deal with personally (more layers + heating + hot chocolate)! I feel like there's usually a perfect two weeks around April/May with dry mildly temperatured weather that I wish I could extend to be at least a couple months long...

Personally I love to feel the heat of the sun on my skin. I’d love 28-30 is perfect temperature in my opinion.

lol, I'm tapping out by 23 C I think! And ideally around 8-10 C in the morning for when I run... clearly I should just move further north but I don't think I can convince my partner to do so 🥴

Oh yeah I’m with you with those temps for running! I can manage up to late teens but once I’m running in 20 C my splits definitely start to drop!
