The UK is expected to experience its hottest May conditions on record, with temperatures forecast to rise to around 34C over the coming days. BBC News reports that 30C heat continues and that eight regions of England enter heatwave conditions on Sunday, signalling widespread warm weather across parts of the country. Multiple outlets also focus on the timing over the Bank Holiday weekend, describing forecasts for very high temperatures as the next peak. The Daily Mail reports that temperatures could climb above 30C, with the highest figures forecast for the Bank Holiday period and possible levels around 33C to 34C. The same source says this would potentially break records for the hottest day in May and for bank holiday weather. One report also claims temperatures could reach 35C, describing it as a “historic” level and as the warmest May day in at least several decades. Overall, the reports agree on the scale of the heatwave, the forecast peak in the low-to-mid 30s Celsius, and the likelihood of record-breaking May temperatures, with some variation in the exact peak figure reported by different outlets.
