As conditions dry up into the second week of July, the Met Office has warned of increasing heat and humid weather, with the potential for another heatwave lasting into next week.
This follows two weekends of heatwave conditions for much of the country in the final weeks of June, which was the hottest on record across England, with Faversham, Kent, hitting nearly 36°C last Tuesday.
Hutin said temperatures were expected to reach the high 20°Cs in the South East on Wednesday, with the potential for low 30°Cs on Thursday.

“It will be drier overall in the East, though some drizzly outbreaks are still possible on Saturday, with showers on Sunday,” she said.
What is the definition for a UK heatwave?
According to the Met Office, the UK heatwave threshold is met when a location records a period of at least three consecutive days with daily maximum temperatures meeting or exceeding the heatwave temperature threshold.
The threshold varies by UK county. The geographical differences reflect the differences in climate across the country.
The threshold temperatures have been calculated using the 1991-2020 climatology of daily maximum temperature at the mid-point of the meteorological summer (15 July).
