Britain to be hotter than Jamaica this week ahead of scorching summer of heatwaves

Brits could be sizzling in soaring temperatures that peak in the mid 30s in a matter of days, the Met Office has said. It would make parts of the UK hotter than Portugal or Jamaica.

We could see the hottest day of the year so far on Friday. And we could be on course for some summer heateaves, with those in the south more likely to see the very warm weather.

Steven Keates of the Met Office was reported in the MirrorOnline saying: “There’s not been much in the way of exceptionally warm days or hot days yet this year, but that is set to change. We’re set to see probably a brief spell of hot weather at the end of this coming week.”
