(Reuters) - Britons enjoyed sweltering heat for the third day running on Tuesday with temperatures reaching 30 degrees Celsius in Wales and possibly set to hit record June highs this week, the Meteorological Office said.
Portmadog in North Wales was the hottest place at 30.6 C, with Tuesday in general only a shade below Monday's highs. Temperatures are expected to peak on Thursday at around 32 C (90 Fahrenheit).
