The UK is set for another scorching week as temperatures across the nation show no sign of settling down. Temperatures in Wales peaked at 27.9C in Usk on Sunday and they are set to rise even higher on Monday.
The UK's record high for 2022 currently stands at 32.7C, recorded at Heathrow on June 17. The current highest in Wales was 28.4°C in Cardiff Bute Park on that day. But the Met Office predict this could easily be beaten this week with temperatures likely to reach the mid-30s, and some modelling even suggesting extreme heights of 43C.
The UK is already currently hotter than some of the world's top beach destinations, including areas in Jamaica, the Maldives and the Bahamas, with the warm weather set to last until the weekend.
