Mapped: UK to be hotter than Barcelona as fifth heatwave will bring 36C temperatures As the UK basks in its fifth heatwave of the season, parts of England are set to experience temperatures of up to 36C, surpassing even the usually balmy conditions found in Barcelona.
This sweltering weather poses a significant threat to vulnerable populations and underscores the country's long standing struggles with heat related health issues.
The UK Health Security Agency has sounded the alarm on the potential risks associated with this heatwave, warning of a rise in deaths among the elderly and those with pre existing conditions.
