Summer Heatwave Shatters Records | Leeds News
Description
This summer’s heatwave shows no signs of cooling down—temperatures have hit 30°C for 11 straight days, with 2026 already marking the first year ever to see 35°C in May, June, and July. A stubborn high-pressure system is keeping the sun locked in, though a slight shift may bring cooler breezes by week’s end. England and Wales are especially suffering, with record-breaking warm nights and dry soil amplifying daytime heat. The Met Office is monitoring whether official heatwave thresholds are met, and with conditions this extreme, this summer is shaping up to be one of the most historic starts in decades. Stay hydrated—this heat isn’t packing its bags anytime soon.
