The UK has experienced its hottest July day since records began after a temperature of 36.7c was recorded at Heathrow today. London was even hotter than Athens, Miami and Rio. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/weather/11711602/Britain-swelters-in-hottest-July-day-for-160-years.html
The intense heatwave could be a taste of things to come as climate change increases and extreme weather takes hold. Check out how the UK dealt with the heat today and imagine how this might become a more common experience if temperatures continue rising as they have done over the past 10 years.
