London is poised for its potential third heatwave of the year with expected temperatures rising to 29C. The Met Office forecasts temperatures of 27C on Wednesday and 29C on Thursday, with overnight lows around 24C. Despite this, a heatwave status, defined by three consecutive days above 28C, remains uncertain. England saw its warmest June on record, prompting amber heat health alerts. Wildfires in London have increased alongside a significant rise in the likelihood of the UK exceeding 40C, with similar conditions affecting parts of Europe.
London is expected to reach 29C next week, potentially marking the city's third heatwave of the year. Temperatures could also hit 24C overnight.
The Met Office indicates that a heatwave, characterized by three consecutive days of 28C or higher, is yet to be confirmed despite rising temperatures.
Provisional figures revealed that England recorded its warmest June last month, leading to multiple amber heat health alerts issued across the country.
The UK now faces a twentyfold increase in the likelihood of temperatures exceeding 40C compared to the 1960s, while parts of Europe face extreme heat.
