Amber heat health alerts have been extended further across several parts of England as the UK heatwave intensifies.
Temperatures are set to soar to 34C in London and south-east England in one of the hottest June days on record, while temperatures will climb above 30C across England, including Manchester, Sheffield, Bristol and Cambridge.
Monday is set to be one of the hottest June days ever as temperatures have only surpassed 34C in three years since 1960.
The hottest June day ever was 35.6C, recorded on June 28 1976.
London is at risk of wildfires and health and social care services across England are expected to be impacted significantly.
It is also provisionally the hottest start to Wimbledon on record, with 29.7C being recorded at the nearby Kew Gardens, the Met Office said.
