Just seen the 1 o clock news bulletin from the hot 30 degree beach in Teignmouth today and noticed in the background SOMEONE HAS GOT A DOG ON THE BEACH WALKING IT! Dear Lord that is so irresponsible 😡 burnt paws and heat exhaustion completely unnecessary- that poor dog 😩😢😡

At least you should be able to save money on gas and electric bills with not putting the heating on!

“Heatwaves are becoming more likely and more extreme because of climate change.” . Really , not in Scotland they aren’t, our summers are getting worse

Awesome we don't have to pay to go to Spain to bask in this weather where the kids can play on the beach

Heat warnings as parts of the UK prepare for temperatures close to 30C todayA heat-health alert has been issued for most of the country, with people warned not to stay in the sun for long periods and to make sure they are covered in high-factor sun cream. Unless you’re in NIR then it’s 15! Where I live 30c means winter. I realise that the elderly struggle to regulate their body temperature, but have a look out of the window before you leave your home. If people are walking around in shorts and t-shirs... Don't feel the need to put a coat on!!
