Certain UK Counties To Experience Scattered Showers Before Massive Heatwave

Jim Dale, a senior meteorologist with the British Weather Services, told Express.co.uk that only residents in the UK's north and northwest will feel the mild reprieve.

Locations including Cheshire, Cumbria, Greater Manchester, Lancashire, and Merseyside are included in this.

However, Dale was unable to provide particular timeframes owing to the dispersed and minor nature of the rains.

He added that citizens will only get sporadic rains in the north and northwest any time today.

According to weather projections, rain may spread south from Scotland and hit places like Newcastle by lunchtime, as per Express.

By around 6 o'clock, sporadic showers may move further west, over the Lake District.

The scenario seems to persist throughout tomorrow, with some rain beginning to fall around the north east coast by 3 p.m.

This week's high temperatures, which will reach the mid-20s to early-30s, have caused a heat health advisory to be issued for the majority of the nation.

However, the scenario is expected to deteriorate by Sunday, July 17, when temperatures rise into the mid-30s, creating a serious risk to the populace.

An amber weather warning for excessive heat will cover much of the UK, including the north, for three days.

The western and northern Isles of Scotland may be the exception, according to Met Office deputy chief meteorologist Dan Harris, where maximum temperatures have been well above normal practically elsewhere in the UK this week.

The following several days will see temperatures that are closer to normal and locally very mild before the warm weather gradually picks back up this weekend, perhaps peaking early next week.

The agency stated last month that temperatures in the UK had never topped 40 Celsius since records have been kept.

However, around the end of June 2022, for the first time ever, weather prediction models began to indicate that it may occur in mid-July.

The Met Office, Britain's national meteorological agency, warned on Wednesday that while some computer models indicated temperatures may reach the 40 Celsius threshold, more likely scenarios indicated temperatures that were a little lower but still quite high.

Numerous cities in eastern and southern China were expected to see temperatures that were higher than 104 degrees Fahrenheit this week.

High heat and drought are wreaking havoc on Italy, forcing water restrictions.

The sweltering heat is a reflection of a global trend of more frequent extreme weather events brought on by climate change.

the UK's hottest recorded temperatures. likely to arise when air masses from continental Europe or North Africa, as they will be this weekend, impact our weather, according to a statement from Dr. Mark McCarthy, director of the Met Office National Climate Information Centre.
