Uk Heatwave
News
UK weather is set to be warmer than Spain’s as forecasters predict temperatures to top 30C next week, potentially breaking the record for June and setting off summer.
BBC Weather forecaster Matt Taylor said Britons can look forward to a "return of summer" as thermometers prepare to skyrocket thanks to an incoming hot spell.
Mr Taylor said: "By Sunday temperatures widely just in the low 20s and the outlook whether you are in Scotland, England or Wales we’ll see temperatures in the low to high 20s, and one or two spots – particularly across west and southern England and East Wales could get to around 30C.
"Certainly turn out to be a return of summer."
The BBC Weather meteorologist added that an area of low pressure closing in on Britain over the weekend will cause temperatures to rise "day by day" to peak around 30C next week.
That's hardly anything. In other countries that's where the heatwave becomes so hot it even makes breathing a bit tough to handle.
abedweather55 Way down in Dover with the mountains and the sea, it can be pretty fresh or cold depending on the person's perception of warm/cold weather.
Dover almost looks like a country of its own because it hardly seems to be as the rest, it has gorgeous mountains, the houses are all traditional and it's away from the big cities. They still drive on the "wrong" side, too. 
Lots of vehicles pass by Dover to cross over to France but a quiet, lovely area.
Ziad4321 yes,
.
as you can see, the jet stream has moved towards the arctic meaning that warm air can come to the Uk.
but out on Friday, you can see
the jet stream has moved toward the center of the Uk, bringing the low pressure back means rain and cooler air. It also means that there will be a massive decrease in the temperature
JessHindle Ah Yes i can see this. this is only for a week and apparently be saturday things will be back to normal
JessHindle Yes
You can see that it is well above the uk. reaching for Iceland and Finland
Ziad4321 oh. Yes I can see it now. This is amazing how computers can see all of this weather
In Scotland it will be rain , wind with a splash of heat for five mins as per usual!
It has been ridiculously hot in Dalkeith the last two days and it is to continue all week! It is also really hot up in the Highlands where my parents live, so Scotland is certainly getting it!
MrsCraig I wish England were "getting it" - in the World Cup I mean - how depressing was that yesterday lol
garygemmell I would take either! The rain might help to cool things down a bit! It was some score! The other team were awful!
MrsCraig Ha ha you have to laugh at Gary Spinnaker and all the other fannies on the program giving it large because they won and being so utterly condescending to the other team because wow they scored one goal lol
Wait till England play a good team I cannot wait to see them get lashed (old school term not a bondage reference by the way but as you are Scottish i presume you ken that yin) and see Spinnaker and fannies make all the excuses under the sun for why they lost - at least when the Scots lads lose we just take it on the chin and admit yeah we were utter crap!
PS. To the mod in Scotland a "Fanny" is a silly person not a reference to the posterior or anterior anatomy depending whether you are English or American lol
!
The weather has been going nuts these days in countries/continents. If it was just rain, great. But bring rain + thunderstorms and you got to be hopeful it goes away as soon as possible.
I've felt it so close that I thought the whole building and ground was gonna crack wide open. That damn bad.
Rockman Global warming or just the natural way of the planet - i go for the latter i am not into the global warming conspiracy theory myself!
They say the earth has ended and restarted many times before!
garygemmell I knew exactly what you meant by lashed! They scored 6 because the other team were awful, I would love to see them score 6 against Germany/Brazil.
MrsCraig I would love to Germany or Brazil score 6 against England lol
Probably will lol
Hopefully will lol
I am putting money on it and rubbing my lucky charm like mad for it!
hihi
garygemmell is it not becuase of global warming. Apparently the jet stream has moved up north meaning this warm air can sway into the Uk. However on saturday the jet stream will start to move towards the south of England meaning that most of the Uk will be a lot cooler by the end of the week. But by cooler, I mean 20 degrees which is still quite warm
JessHindle We may make a small effect on the weather but its the planet itself its changing as it always has - A volcano spews out more toxic chemicals in a day than humans do in a year and there are volcanos all over the world - we are sitting on a massive atom bomb rememeber - Trump is right this global warming nonsense was just another way to con us with carbon credits , increased taxes , make us buy new cars - thats the conspiracy theory in reality not global warming!
One thing i do agree with though is that we are killing all the animals in the sea with pollution of that there is no doubt and cutting the rainforests down and destroying all the oxygen creators and carbon dioxide scrubbers which does affect the atmosphere. Swiss scientists warned us 30 years ago that Benzene (comes from petrol) if it were to become prevalent in the atmosphere would change our DNA and cause men to become infertile / homosexual call it what you will but we are engineering our own doom. That and all the female hormones pumped into the rivers its turning men female apparently thats why LGBT is now such a big issue!
garygemmell Global warming is probably the cause of it. The weather wasn't like this before.
JessHindle yes. on my weather forcast it says it will get cooler on the weekend
This hot weather is great. Two slight problems though; hay fever and noisy next door neighbours.
Here in the highlands of Scotland it's icey cold. Ive got the open fire going
You do move around a lot the other day you were in dornoch and now you are in the outer hebrides. We're next ? Hope it's some were warmer for you.
I was slumming it with the locals lol
I was at the kite flying gala in Dornoch but there was no wind lol
What a downer - literally - my kite was as flaccid as a pancake - no change there then!
>;o)
I'm off to Meteora to visit the James Bond Monastery and the Oracle at Delphi in 2 or 3 weeks then Petra after that.
Ahh the joys of retiring at 40!!!
Bucket list is rapidly decreasing!
This weather is abnormal. Seriously morning 13 degree...nearly freezing after yesterday was like 30....and than the afternoon is warm again. What is happening?
Consider yourself lucky it's just that and not a mixture of rain, hail and/or thunderstorms. I'd say this is the result of the climate change.
