The UK’s hottest June day on record has been broken again during this week’s heatwave, with a provisional temperature of 36.4C recorded in Yeovilton, Somerset.
This surpasses the high of 36.1C set on Wednesday in Gosport, Hampshire, the Met Office said.
It comes after the Met Office extended its red warning for extreme heat for Friday as the peak of a heatwave affecting most of England and Wales are set to shift eastwards.
