These are unprecedented temperatures for the UK, and climate change means we expect more heatwaves to happen in the future. People often think of heatwaves as part of enjoying the summer, but they can be dangerous and must be taken seriously.
🌡️ For the first time ever, 40 Celsius has provisionally been exceeded in the UK London Heathrow reported a temperature of 40.2°C at 12:50 today 📈 Temperatures are still climbing in many places, so remember to stay #WeatherAware ⚠️ #heatwave #heatwave2022
