Another heatwave is about to hit London. The Met Office has issued a new weather prediction for the next two weeks, with temperatures expected to reach as high as 30C on Friday – and up to 34C next week.
What’s more, an “El Nino” global weather event is now 80 per cent likely to happen this summer, according to scientists at the World Meteorological Organisation. UN scientists have suggested it could take place during the height of British summertime, between July and August – meaning even hotter days are on the horizon.
