Heat-health warnings issued for six areas of England ahead of sweltering weekend

Heat-health warnings have been issued across England for the weekend. The UK Health Security Agency and the Met Office have raised a yellow heat-health alert for six regions in England.

The alert will be in effect from midday on Friday until 9am on Sunday. The Met Office has predicted temperatures of 27C to 28C on Friday, with a rise to 30C in some parts of the country on Saturday. A yellow warning from the UKHSA indicates an increased use of health care services by vulnerable individuals and a higher health risk for those over 65 or with pre-existing health conditions.

"f you have friends, family or neighbors who are more vulnerable, it is important to check in on them and ensure they are aware of the forecasts and are following the necessary advice.”
