It isn’t a general warning Jiries.  It’s an advisory for the health and social care sector and is very relevant to them.

Minor impacts are probable across the health and social care sector, including:
Increased use of healthcare services by the vulnerable population.
Increase in risk of mortality amongst vulnerable individuals and increased potential for indoor environments to become very warm.”

I suspect they vast majority of health and social care practitioners will also not be aware of the alerts beyond at most “look out for x, y or z” symptoms. It is in the category of damned if you do (accusations of nanny state) and damned if you don’t (“why were the health and social care sectors not more prepared for an increased in heat related issues amongst the most vulnerable?”)

For most people, or those that like the warmth, the weather in current output will be very welcome.

So sorry to have taken this off topic, it wasn’t intended, but there are valid reasons for these alerts.

The new MetO raw has upgraded the heat: even in Heathrow, 29C counts as "hot" at this time of year (the average is just under 23 right now).

https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/forecast/gcpsvg3nc#?date=2024-06-26 

A good chance of the first 30 of the year on Wednesday, I'd suggest, with an outside chance of seeing one on Tuesday and Thursday too.

Temps back to normal finally after a below average June so far still running at -1.5 below normal. A few favoured spots topping the high 20’s this week (Heathrow runway 2 perhaps) but temps fall off a cliff next weekend with the ever familiar rain spikes creeping back in.

WX summary charts not loading this morning. Last night they hadn't changed much from the morning's output: WX charts scale back the warmth in Europe in week 2, especially around the Baltic. Britain grades from warm in the south to cool in the north; continental Europe stays generally warm; coastal Norway and Iceland rather cold.

GFS Op - Current HP with foundation of warm air squeezed out on Thu 27th by a link-up between LP Iceland and LP France (BBC this morning showing rain for the NW and for the S Wed into Thu). These two form a trough lying N-S, sometimes over Britain, sometimes down the N Sea and persisting through to Sat 6th between HP a few hundred miles to E and W. Even on the 6th the LP is not far away, but HP gets closer to the SW and starts to bring in NW-lies.

ECM - emphasises (as previously) the Icelandic end of the trough on Thu 27th (985mb Rockall) but restores HP quickly to cover Britain by Sun 30th before moving to a more zonal W-ly set-up on Wed 3rd (yesterday's ECM kept the trough in place so a significant upgrade even if it adds to an air of uncertainty)

GEM - also has the trough from Thu 27th, but like ECM by Mon 1st HP from the W has pushed the trough E-wards, at the expense of bringing in cool W/NW winds, but looking dry and settled.

GEFS - warm to about Thu 27th, then cool to Wed 3rd, finally back to norm, moderately good agreement of ensemble members throughout. Rain starts Wed 26th/Thu 27th and persists though amounts tend to decline with time, and are never enormous except for one or two runs in the SW,  .

It does look as if should HP rebuild it is more likely to be further west which will mean a somewhat cooler setup but it could still be very pleasant. The dire charts with a trough getting stuck over the UK from the second half of this week seem to have disappeared for now, anyway.

Been looking at the AIFS model recently.  The AI version of the ECM. It's verification stats hold up very well marginally better in fact compared to the ECM especially in the 168h-240h range. It's been forecasting HP nudging in to the UK at the beginning of July for a while now. Not perfect but not bad especially for the South.

The GEFS are pretty confident at least on a cooler spell in early July with some rain around. As always it could all change but at this stage a heatwave in the first 10 days or so of July is looking unlikely.

UKMO, ICON and GEM all look fine for the end of the week and the weekend next week.
GFS on the other hand looks distinctly Autumnal.

Looks like an excellent chance of 30 on both Wednesday and Thursday now... unfortunately for me, the latter is more likely here, according to the new MetO output!

It has 29C now as the high for Thursday (compared to 28 for Heathrow), but Heathrow still has 29C for Wednesday... when it's "just" 25C here.

https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/forecast/u10skvs08#?date=2024-06-23&forecastChoice=weather 

It's a reminder that it's relatively easy to get temperatures of 7C above average (as 29 would be here), but far, far harder to get 7C below!
