Dry weather is set to continue over a "prolonged period" in Britain with highs of 35 degrees Celsius predicted next week, the Met Office has said. Another heatwave is on the way that is expected to last longer than the record-breaking hot spell in July.
Temperatures will not reach the scorching heights of last month’s 43.C. However, the coming days will see "very notable" weather with heatwave criteria likely to be met across many parts of the UK.
The whole of England and Wales is likely to see sunshine and dry conditions over the coming week as high pressure builds across the UK. Parts of north-west Scotland may be cloudier and breezier up to Wednesday, but fine weather is expected for all areas of the country later in the week.
