The Met Office has warned more heatwaves are possible as it gave its verdict on national reports Britain could be in for more 40C temperatures this summer. It is almost a year since the UK recorded its highest temperature on record, sparking wildfires across the country, including Nottingham.
While the weather hasn't quite reached those extremes, there has been some very warm temperatures over the last few weeks. Now, the Met Office has released its long-range forecast, which states temperatures are expected to be 'well above average' in July.
In its UK forecast for Friday, July 7 to Friday, July 21, a Met Office forecaster said: "Current signals are uncertain moving further into July. A continuation of the above north/south split is possible, particularly earlier on, but it is possible that the situation could flip as we move deeper into July.
