Brits are facing temperatures topping 34C on the hottest day of the year so far, with the Met Office issuing heat warnings throughout the UK. Whether you're still working from home, or if you're trying to get a good night's sleep, staying cool during such extreme weather is vital.
Parts of the South East, South and London could reach temperatures hotter than Portugal, Jamaica, Costa Rica, the Canary Islands and Cyprus. It could even be the hottest June day for the UK since records began, if temperatures top the 35.6C recorded in Southampton in 1976, reports the Mirror.
While the heat is great news for those making the most of summer, the sweltering weather could spell bad news for our electricity bills. Typically, British houses don't have air-conditioning so it might be time to dust off your old fan, or even buy a new one.
