UK weather – Brits to bake through FOUR-WEEK scorcher with glorious 35C sunshine making Britain hotter than Cancun | The Sun
BRITS are set to enjoy a four-week scorcher with highs of 35C sunshine.
The soaring temperatures will make the UK hotter than Cancun, Mexico, which is set to reach 29C on Saturday.
Temperatures in the UK are expected to reach 30C before rising further throughout the month.
The Weather Outlook's Brian Gaze told the Star: “The mid-30s are expected, but 35C or higher would not be a surprise (this month).
“Some forecast models show extreme heat.”
Highs of 24C are set to be reached tomorrow, with 25C on Wednesday and 28C on Friday.

A Met Office forecaster said: “After rain in the north and west, it turns warmer from Wednesday.
“High pressure is likely to dominate through the period to July 16, bringing dry and generally settled conditions.”

And experts are suggesting the heat may climb to 35C in time for this date.
The Weather Outlook forecaster Brian Gaze said he wouldn’t be surprised if we got 35C, but the Met Office reckons it will be 30C.
Brian told The Sun: “At the moment long-range computer models are suggesting an increased likelihood of very warm conditions during the last third of July.
