THE Met Office has expanded its amber extreme heat warning for Monday and Tuesday as forecasts suggest temperatures could climb to 36 or 37C (97-99F) in parts of the UK reports the BBC.

The warning means there are likely to be widespread impacts on people and infrastructure, with the risk of adverse health effects and disruption to travel.

Some locations could see temperatures above 30C (86F) for six or seven consecutive days, with overnight temperatures remaining above 20C (68F) in places.

FYI:

In summer 2025:

there were 1,504 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 936 to 2,072) heat-associated deaths observed during 5 heat episodes
there were 1,535 fewer deaths than predicted, based on the observed temperatures and the historic temperature-mortality relationship
the pattern of lower observed estimates compared with modelled estimates was consistent across all heat episodes
the highest heat-associated mortality rates were seen in those aged 85 years and over (364 heat-associated deaths per million population), and those aged 75 to 84 years (116 heat-associated deaths per million population)
heat-associated deaths were predominantly observed in southern, central and eastern regions of England
