UK Braces for Fourth Scorching Heatwave

Britain is set to endure its fourth heatwave of the summer, with temperatures forecast to reach 35°C and health authorities warning of significant impacts.

The Met Office has identified the coming days as the next ‘heatwave window’, while drought conditions have already been declared in parts of Wales.

The UK Health Security Agency urged the public to prepare for severe heat, and fire services warned that arid landscapes have become a tinderbox.

The relentless heat is straining emergency services and raising fears of wildfires across the country.
