The Met Office have now extended their amber extreme heat warning to N Ireland until Friday. There are also yellow and amber thunderstorm warnings for the eastern half of the country from the midlands southwards.
The storms are moving only slowly, so if you catch one it could last some time.

I think we are a fair way off a drought as we had a very wet spell not that long ago. It looks likely that the hot spell will break with thunderstorms at the weekend, although there is some uncertainty as to how far north these will get. In any case it is likely to be much cooler and more unsettled next week.

I looked at that extreme heat warning and wondered if it would be like 1976 when they appointed a minister for the drought and a day or two later the rain started with a huge thunder storm.
The UV feels slightly less than last year when the top of my head got burned. The rest of me is OK as long as I build up a tan before the sun gets too strong in the spring.

The Met Office have released their first ever amber extreme heat warning for the south west of the UK into south Wales. This covers today until Thursday from 4pm to midnight, but to be frank it is going to be uncomfortably hot most of the time. Scattered thunderstorms are also a possibility.
Please also be aware that UV levels are extremely high in the sunshine and it won't take long to burn.

The beginning of August currently looks more changeable and cooler, but it is too far away to be sure. Some of the models bring back the high pressure and possibly the heat further into August, others don't. At this timescale it is little better than guesswork to be honest.

Last year was less hot but with less haze and the top of my head got burned.
I just need a few hours before the sun gets too high in the early spring and then I can go out in it.

Plot….my father was like that - first time in the sun for several months and lashings of olive oil () and he’d be dark brown the next day.
No idea where that gene went to but I certainly didn’t get it

I am to some extent able to cope with the sun as I tan quite easily. There is nothing stopping me getting overheated though.
The other problem is that I start looking like I am from a hot country.
