Episode Details

UK just shattered its June heat record for three straight days, with 37.3°C in Suffolk — a full 50 years beyond the old mark. Scientists blame climate change, saying such heatwaves were nearly impossible before. As the scorching spell eases, thunderstorms loom, with cooler air moving in. Schools shut, hosepipe bans imposed, hospitals overwhelmed — even court cells became unbearable. A “heat dome” fueled by fossil fuel emissions is making these extremes more frequent and deadly. Next week’s weather? Mixed. But the message is clear: extreme heat is now the new normal — and we’re not ready.
