Heatwave triggers amber alert as mercury to hit 30C
The Independent
|June 28, 2025
Temperatures could hit 30C today during the second amber heat health alert in two weeks. Yesterday, temperatures reached 29C in Coningsby, incolnshire, and the weather is forecast to climb over the next couple of days, according to the Met Office.
The alert, which covers London, the East Midlands, South East, South West and East of England, will last until 6pm on Tuesday.
The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) also issued a yellow alert for Yorkshire and Humber and the West Midlands for the same time period, with the agency warning of significant impacts across health and social care services.
Met Office meteorologist Jonathan Vautrey said: "The big talking point at the moment is the rise in temperatures we're going to be seeing over the next few days."

Why is Gen Z so obsessed with 'almost relationships'?
Nothing is as romantic as a relationship that never quite happened. Preserved in possibility, it’s a near-miss dynamic that exists in an exclusively liminal space; you’re not quite together, but there’s enough evidence to suggest that one day, were all the stars to suddenly align, you might be. And so you cling on, wondering, waiting, hoping.
