The UK Met Office said on the 9th that in 2026, the UK has already had 8 days with temperatures above 34°C, breaking the previous record of 7 days of high temperatures for the entire year. The European Union’s climate monitoring agency released a report the same day confirming that Western Europe has just experienced the hottest June on record. In a post on social media, the UK Met Office said that on the 9th, in the Weysley area of Wesseley District in Surrey in southern England, the temperature was measured at 34.4°C, bringing the number of days this year with temperatures of 34°C or higher to 8, surpassing the 7-day record set in 2020 and 1976. This year, England has had its hottest June since records began in 1884, and the heatwave has disrupted the normal operation of transportation, schools, and medical institutions. (CCTV News)
