The UK's highest ever temperature could be broken again within a month of the record being sent, bookmakers indicate.
Coral is now offering odds of 6-4 that the record of 40.3C set in July will be broken in August 2022. Previously, it offered odds of 3-1. Coral has also made it odds-on that August 2022 will be the month's hottest on record, and offers 1-4 for a hosepipe ban.
“We could be set for more record-breaking temperatures next month, as not only do we make it odds-on to be the hottest August ever, we have slashed the odds in half of the recent record temperature of 40.3C bring broken,” said Coral’s John Hill.
