Storm Dexter heatwave maps show exactly where could hit 34C within days
People around the UK have been told to expect blistering heat next week as weather maps predict some areas to reach peaks of up to 34C Storm Dexter is set to roast the UK next week by drawing warm, humid air up from the southwest and pushing temperatures into mid 30s. Advanced weather modelling maps predict the highest readings will come across central, southern and eastern England, with some areas hitting 34C on Tuesday. It's down to a ridge of high pressure reinforced by the storms' remains, which will sit over much of southern Britain, promoting prolonged sunshine, light winds, and sticky nights. Meanwhile, those in the north - and particularly Scotland and Northern Ireland - will remain under more wet and showery conditions with the odd band of rain and blustery winds. It comes after an exciting heatwave forecast with maps revealing the exact date a 39C heat plume will scorch the UK. Public-health agencies are already preparing, with the UK Health Security Agency issuing a yellow heat-health alert covering large swathes of England from midnight on Monday up until 6pm on Wednesday. It warns high temperatures could have 'significant impacts' on vulnerable people and health services. Local maps of that alert correspond closely with the regions most likely to see 30–34C. People in London, the South East, the East of England and parts of the Midlands and Yorkshire have been told to expect sweltering weather. Despite the current predictions, forecasters have told people to be wary and that things could change easily. If there is a slight shift in the storm's tracking, or in the timing of clouds, the hot-spot locations around the UK could change. The Met Office says it is 'confident temperatures will increase markedly by the start of next week' but cautions the duration of the heat is less certain. Short-lived 34C readings are possible; a prolonged, widespread heatwave would need the pattern to lock in. Brits are being urged to check local forecasts each morning and to follow all UKHSA heat-health advice if you're in an alerted area which is predicted to have hot weather. If you are, you should keep hydrated, avoid heavy exertion in the hottest afternoon hours and look out for those most at risk. In recent weeks, the UK has experienced a mix of unsettled spells with frequent showers in the north and west, while the south and east have enjoyed intermittent warm, sunny periods. Temperatures have generally been near or slightly above average, but without the prolonged extremes seen earlier in the summer.

Tropical Storm Dexter heading for Scotland as unsettled conditions expected
Temperatures here will be closer to the seasonal average and Scots could face unsettled conditions with wind and rain as the storms moves in to the UK on Saturday. The majority of Scotland is expected to miss out on a heatwave set to hit the rest of the UK as Storm Dexter moves in. The Mirror reports that the Met Office has warned that Tropical Storm Dexter will arrive on Saturday night after travelling from the east of the USA across the Atlantic and will bring 'unseasonably hot' weather with it. Temperatures in eastern Scotland could peak around 23-24C, but with more cloud and a stronger breeze across northwestern Scotland, temperatures here will be closer to the seasonal average and could face unsettled conditions with wind and rain. However, England and Wales should expect a scorcher of a week. According to the Met Office, the remnants of Tropical Storm Dexter will draw warm air from the southwest across the UK. The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has even issued a yellow heat health warning for a large part of the country starting Monday. as the hot weather front approaches. Met Office Deputy Chief Meteorologist, Steven Keates, said: 'We're confident that temperatures will increase markedly by the start of next week, reaching the low 30s Celsius in parts of England on Monday and perhaps the mid 30s in a few places on Tuesday. 'However, the length of this warm spell is still uncertain, and it is possible that high temperatures could persist further into next week, particularly in the south. 'Ex-Dexter sets the wheels in motion for an uptick in temperatures, but the weather patterns then maintaining any hot weather are rather more uncertain'. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

UK weather: Nine major UK cities face 32C heatwave blast as maps turn RED
As many as nine cities could be hit with 32C temperatures next week as weather maps turn red just days after parts of the UK were battered by a storm Another heatwave is set to scorch parts of the UK as weather maps reveal which major cities could be hit with more hot weather. The UK has already seen three heatwaves this summer, as the fourth is due to hit parts of the country. Temperatures could rise up to 32C in some areas next week as forecasters have revealed which day could bring the hottest weather. Forecasters at Ventusky have also revealed which nine major UK cities could experience the warmest weather on Tuesday. It comes after an exciting heatwave forecast with maps has revealed the exact date a 39C heat plume will scorch the UK. Weather maps show parts of England and Wales could see temperatures rise to 32C on Tuesday, turning red across several cities at around 4pm. These cities include London, Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Bristol, Swansea, Nottingham, Leeds and Norwich. Other cities like Brighton and Newcastle won't see temperatures soar to 32C but locals will be able to enjoy 23C heat. Maps show the warm weather could continue until Thursday, as the hot spell moves to the East of England. A heatwave is officially declared when an area hits the heatwave threshold for three consecutive days. The threshold varies from 25C to 28C across the UK. The Met Office has also predicted temperatures will soar into the 30s from huge parts of the country early next week. The agency said: "From Sunday, temperatures will begin to rise across southern parts of the UK, as the remnants of Tropical Storm Dexter, draws warm air up from the southwest across the UK. "Temperatures are expected to exceed 30C in places across parts of central, southern and eastern England on Monday and Tuesday." Met Office Deputy Chief Meteorologist, Steven Keates, said: "We're confident that temperatures will increase markedly by the start of next week, reaching the low 30s Celsius in parts of England on Monday and perhaps the mid 30s in a few places on Tuesday. "However, the length of this warm spell is still uncertain, and it is possible that high temperatures could persist further into next week, particularly in the south." This comes as tropical Storm Dexter is making its way across the Atlantic and is predicted to hit the northern parts of the UK by late Saturday. While temperatures soar in England, Scotland could be hit with wind and rain. Storm Floris brought "unseasonably" wet and windy weather to the UK earlier in the week as yellow and amber weather warnings were issued for Scotland and the North of England.
