Yellow heat health alerts are now in effect for much of England, excluding the north-east and north-west, from Monday to Wednesday. The Met Office predicts heatwave criteria with temperatures rising above set thresholds. London is expected to experience a peak of 32C on Tuesday after starting at 29C on Monday. This heat follows heavy rain and strong winds from Storm Floris. The conditions are caused by high pressure melding with remnants of Tropical Storm Dexter, producing hot air across southern Britain.
The Met Office forecasts temperatures reaching 29C on Monday, 32C on Tuesday, and 28C on Wednesday in London, indicating a significant heatwave period.
The warm spell continues a pattern of substantial temperature increase following earlier heavy rain and strong winds caused by Storm Floris earlier that week.
Yellow heat health alerts are active across most of England, indicating expected temperatures will surpass heatwave thresholds that range from 25C to 28C.
Warm and humid air will remain until Wednesday, leading to the fourth heatwave of the summer across eastern and south-eastern England, Midlands, and east Wales.
