UK Weather: A heat wave will spread north and west as temperatures rise.


By Friday the heat will spread to parts of South Wales and the Midlands with temperatures in the low to mid 30s as the area of ​​high pressure spreads further north and west.

At the same time, developing easterly winds will bring slightly cooler conditions to eastern areas.

Temperatures are expected to reach the mid-20s on Friday for Northern Ireland and Scotland.

Amber heat health alerts are in place for parts of the Midlands, East and South England until July 12.

Yellow heat health alerts are in force for the same period in the north of England.

This means there could be significant impacts on health and social care services, including increased mortality, particularly for people aged 65 and over or people with underlying health conditions.

On Wednesday, the National Fire Chiefs Council (NFCC) warned that dry and hot weather means an increased risk of wildfires, and advised people to avoid using barbecues in open countryside, parks and moorland.
