Earlier this week Scotland was placed under an amber warning for "extreme heat" as temperatures soared into the mid-30s in parts of the country.
Following the blistering two days, experts are now saying the heat would be virtually impossible in a climate unaffected by human influence.
Scotland recorded both its highest maximum temperature, which was 35.1C at Floors Castle in Roxburghshire, and its highest daily minimum temperature, which was 21.3C at Nunraw Abbey in East Lothian.
