Good Morning Britain weather presenter Laura Tobin has warned there will be fatalities this week as the weather continues to heat up. Temperatures are set to hit 33C today, Monday, and by the end of the week are set to challenge the record for the time of year which is almost 39C.
The Met Office has said the mercury in central, southern and eastern England will soar on Monday afternoon amid a heatwave blasting the nation. Parts of the country will be hotter than some of the world’s top beach destinations, including areas in Jamaica, the Maldives and the Bahamas, with the hot weather set to last until the weekend.
The UK’s record high for 2022 currently stands at 32.7C, recorded at Heathrow on June 17. Laura said: "There's a whole haul of people that this heat and humidity, that will last all week with really humid nights, it is not welcome news.
