Amber heat health alerts have been issued multiple times across parts of England since late June 2025, as temperatures are forecast to soar above 30 degrees Celsius, reaching up to 35 degrees Celsius in some areas. These alerts mark the second issuance within a fortnight, reflecting ongoing heatwave conditions affecting central and southern England, including London where temperatures could reach 34 degrees Celsius. The UK Health Security Agency has warned of a likely rise in deaths, particularly among older adults and individuals with pre-existing health conditions. Following the heatwave, the Met Office issued yellow weather warnings in mid-July for heavy rain and thunderstorms expected to bring flooding and disruption across much of the UK. These warnings have been extended to cover large parts of the country, with some areas forecast to receive 30 to 60 millimeters of rain. The weather pattern includes heavy, thundery rain moving northwards, with further showers and thunderstorms likely, accompanied by occasional sunny spells and warm temperatures during breaks in the rain.
