LONDON, United Kingdom (AFP) — Britain is “on course” to chalk up its warmest summer on record for the second year running, the UK’s Met Office weather agency said Tuesday as the country braced for its fifth heatwave of the season.
“The UK is on course to record its warmest summer on record for mean temperature, with only average conditions needed for the remainder of August to surpass the record set only last year,” the Met Office said in a statement.
Britain last year sweltered through its hottest summer on record with a mean temperature of 16.10C, surpassing the previous record of 15.76C set in 2018.
