Exact date 31C heat blast will make Britain hotter than Ibiza
Weather maps have turned red, indicating more scorching temperatures were set to warm up the UK. Brits were currently enjoying the fourth heatwave of the year as the mercury has soared above 30C in parts of the country. However in the second half of the coming week, temperatures will drop to the low 20Cs and high teens, according to a map from Ventusky.

Spiking on Tuesday, August 26, a mid-afternoon weather map shows highs of 31C in the southeast of England, compared to the high 20Cs predicted on the holiday island. A few days before - on Sunday, August 24 - there will be widespread temperatures in the high 20Cs for England while in England it will be cooler in the mid to high teens. Weather in the UK will be influenced by a high pressure system over the Continent but a front bringing unsettled weather starts to come in from the Atlantic, the Mirror reports. This means that for August 25 and 26 it remains hot in the south east but temperatures will down to the low teens in the west of Wales and northern Scotland. The Met Office's outlook between August 21-30 suggests dry weather before the low pressure sweeps in, linked to Tropical Storm Erin.

"High pressure is likely to progress SE across the UK for a time, bringing widely fine and dry conditions and for some, an increase in temperatures, relative to the previous few days. "Whilst this is happening a deep area of low pressure is likely to develop in the North Atlantic, linked to Tropical Storm Erin. "The final week of August may see Atlantic weather systems progress over the UK, especially in the north and west, with a small chance of widely wetter and windier weather developing. The evolution of this is highly uncertain though."
