BREAKING: The temperature has exceeded 40°C for the first time ever in the UK, the Met Office has said. London Heathrow reported a temperature of 40.2°C at 12:50pm this afternoon, and temperatures are still likely to rise.
Much of the UK is sweltering in a heatwave, with parts of England and Wales under a rare Met office red warning for extreme heat.
Forecasters warn the scorching weather poses a danger to life, pressure on the NHS and disruption across transport networks. The extreme heat is fuelled by climate change, which is making every heatwave more intense, frequent and likely, scientists warn. The new high for daytime temperatures comes after the UK experienced its warmest night on record, with temperatures remaining in the mid-20s last night.
