Further data suggests a potential temperature surge on June 16, with 32C expected in the south-east of England. Northern England may experience highs of 29C-30C, while the east of England and South Yorkshire could see temperatures reaching 31C.
Temperature anomaly maps for June 16 indicate significant temperature rises above the seasonal average across England, Wales, and southern Scotland.
The ECMWF model suggests that around 21 counties in England could potentially experience temperatures exceeding 30C during this period, although this does not necessarily indicate an official heatwave as per UK standards.
