An amber heat warning has been issued for large parts of the UK, with Hertfordshire among the regions bracing for a heatwave that could see temperatures well into the 30s.
The mercury has been predicted to reach 32°C in Hertfordshire, with some spots in the south east likely to hit 33°C, according to the Met Office. "While the highest temperatures are expected in the south, heatwave conditions are likely across much of England and Wales especially, with parts of Scotland and Northern Ireland also likely to see some unseasonably high temperatures.
"It’s a marked contrast to the much of meteorological summer, when the UK was on the northern side of the jet stream with cooler air and more unsettled weather."The heightening to an amber alert means an increased risk to vulnerable people, including those aged over 65 with health conditions and young children.
