England experienced its hottest June on record in 2026, with the UK and Wales seeing their second-warmest, driven by a late-month heatwave that triggered the first three-day red heat alert. Met Office scientists link these extreme temperatures to human-induced climate change, warning of significant health and sector impacts.
England experienced its warmest June on record, while the UK as a whole saw its second warmest, with mean temperatures reaching 17.1C. Record high temperatures were set in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, leading to a rare red extreme heat warning.
