British families are gearing up for upcoming hotter summer days this week and ensuing July as the Met Office has confirmed a brutal second heatwave will follow, potentially pushing temperatures to a sweltering 40 degrees Celsius.
According to the UK Meteorological Office, the second heatwave is set to follow the UK's current sizzling spell from June 25 to July 4.
'Rather changeable conditions are anticipated through this period, as a series of Atlantic low-pressure systems pass largely to the northwest of the UK,' said the office.
