The Met Office has issued an amber “heat health watch warning” in what could be the hottest summer in Uk history. Brits have usually travelled abroad for real heat to substitute the inconsistent British weather, but 2018 is different. England appears to be the place for a reliable hot summer this year.
Forecasters said there is a chance of hitting a scorching 34C or 35C (95F), which could put Britons in line for the hottest day since the mercury hit 34.5C (94.1F) at Heathrow on June 21 last year. The heatwave warning is urging people to either stay out of the sun or avoid being in the sun when it is at its strongest between 11am and 3pm. The hottest July day on record is 36.7C (98F), which was reached at Heathrow on July 1 2015.
With the weather so hot, brits are in their element wearing their best clothes and spending silly on drinks. However, there is cause for caution.

Met Office forecaster Alex Burkill said: “It does look likely it will be at least 33C at some point this week, most likely on Wednesday or Thursday, in the south east and east, London, Essex, Kent, east Anglia and into Lincolnshire – and that would make it the hottest day we have had so far.”The current heatwave could go on for many more weeks, meaning the usually luscious grass will continue to get drier.
