This June is set to be the hottest on record - and temperatures are set to soar even higher in July
Forecasters would typically expect temperatures in June to be in the high teens or early 20s.
The Met Office’s Mike Kendon said: "With only a few days of near-average temperatures forecast for the remainder of the month, overall this June will turn out to be provisionally the hottest June on record for the UK for both mean and average maximum temperature."Meteorologically, June started with high pressure over the UK bringing often settled and dry conditions with plenty of sunshine.
"Once that high pressure subsided, warm, humid air took charge over the UK, with 32.2C the highest temperature recorded so far this month and high temperatures for the vast majority of the UK."What has been particularly unusual is the persistent warmth for much of the month, with temperatures reaching 25C widely for at least a fortnight, and at times 28 to 30C – whereas we would more typically expect maximum temperatures in the high teens or low 20s at this time of year.
