UK Weather – Brits to be baked by 32C sizzler in hottest June EVER as 7-day heatwave makes Britain hotter than HAWAII

BRITS are set to be baked by a 32C sizzler as a seven-day heatwave makes it the hottest June EVER.

Temperatures in London and the south-east of England are tipped to soar into the "low 30s" at the end of next week - making the nation hotter than Hawaii.

Met Office meteorologist Jonathan Vautrey said: "As we move into the end of the week, that's when we are starting to pick up the signal for the potential for some significant heat to come up from the south."

On Saturday, the mercury rolled up into its early 20s, with Greater London getting a taste of the hotter days to come.

Mr Vautrey said there was "a lot of sunshine around to help to keep things feeling pretty warm".

He added: "There is a signal in that the heat we have currently got over Spain - I believe they are experiencing rather high temperatures at the moment - could edge its way northwards to south-eastern areas of the UK, at least for the end of the week.

"So at the moment, the model wants to take us up to mid-20s by the middle of the week and then potentially into low 30s for Friday, which would be the warmest conditions we have seen over the course of this year so far."

The hottest single June days hit 35.6C, recorded in 1957 and 1976.

Bookmakers are now offering 3/1 odds that monthly average temperature could be the hottest on record.

Brits are already enjoying highs of 22C to 24C this weekend - but by next week, the UK will be hit with the heat.

Wednesday will see temperatures climb to 26C, but by Thursday Britain will be basking in 29C - the same temperature as the Algarve.

Manchester, London and Southampton will see the warmest weather, with cooler, breezier temperatures elsewhere along the coastline.

Northern Ireland looks as though it could see highs of a pleasant 24C.

Temperatures yesterday climbed to 24C in the south while today is slightly cooler at 22C.

However, up north heavy rain and gales are on the way - as a warning for 'unsettled' weather has been put in place for this week.

Met Office Forecaster Steven Dixon told The Sun: “There's some wet and windy weather that's going to be grazing past the north west.

“It's a low-pressure system that will bring winds of 45 knots in certain areas on Saturday and some unseasonably strong winds.”
