Amber alerts set to lift as weather begins to cool

Much of the UK is in for a reprieve from the hot weather on Monday as the third heatwave this summer starts to come to an end.

Amber and yellow heat health alerts which have been in place across England are due to lift at 9am.

    Temperatures which have exceeded 30C in several parts of the country and broken multiple records over the weekend are widely forecast to cool.

    “The heatwave is starting to come to an end as low pressure starts to move in from the Atlantic,” Met Office meteorologist Greg Dewhurst said.

    “We say goodbye to high pressure as this area of low pressure takes over, bringing bands of heavy rain, some thundery downpours, but also bringing in some fresher conditions across many parts.”

    Central and eastern parts of England are expected to hold on to the warmth on Monday, with forecasts of 25C-26C, while East Anglia and south-east England could potentially hit 30C.

    But the rest of the UK is expected to see temperatures ranging between 18C and 22C.

    Northern England and southern Scotland are most likely to see heavy downpours and some rumbles of thunder but forecasters say there will be plenty of sunny spells developing across the UK through the day.

    The peak of the heatwave hit on Saturday, when Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales all recorded their warmest day of the year so far, with Scotland and Northern Ireland reaching temperatures they have not hit in years.

    Although the hot weather continued on Sunday, temperatures did drop slightly as forecast.

    Ross-on-Wye in Herefordshire hit 30.8C while Achnagart in the Scottish Highlands reached 30.4C, Cardiff’s Bute Park 30.2C and Castlederg in Co Tyrone 27.1C.

    The heatwave saw fire and rescue teams tackling wildfires in London, Surrey, and Perth in Scotland, and a hosepipe ban come into force in Yorkshire, with similar restrictions issued for Kent and Sussex from July 18.
