The Met Office has issued a blunt response to reports that the UK is on course for a 40C heatwave. Forecasters say there are 'misleading' headlines about high temperatures around at the moment.
They have now released a #FactCheck to quash the reports about whether we could be in for another scorching summer. Experts at the Met Office urged people to look at their own long-range forecast as a reliable source for information, reports Gloucestershire Live.
Responding to 40C 'tropical blast' reports, it said this was 'not accurate' for the current forecast period. It said: "It's turning cooler and more unsettled for most through the weekend and into early next week."
