Hottest May day on record in UK as temperatures pass 34°C.

The UK has recorded its all-time highest May temperature as part of London reached 34.8C on Monday.

That provisional figure, recorded in Kew Gardens, also surpassed the hottest bank holiday Monday on record - 33.3C on the August bank holiday in 2019.

Wales has also experienced its hottest May day, reaching 32.2C at Hawarden Airport in Flintshire.

"This heat would be exceptional in the UK even in mid-summer, let alone in May", the Met Office said.

The mercury is expected to rise further in the South and South East of England, with forecasters warning of possible 35C heat on Monday and Tuesday.

The UK recorded its warmest May night on Sunday, with highs of 19.4C in London.

This week's weather means more than half of the monthly record highs - seven out of 12 - have been set since 2003, according to the Met Office.

These exceptionally high temperatures have been caused by "the influence of warmth building under an area of high pressure near the UK", Met Office chief operational meteorologist Dan Suri said.

The average temperature for the end of May is 14-20C.

On Friday, the UK Health Security Agency issued its first amber-heat health alert, external of 2026, covering much of England, including the West Midlands, East Midlands, East of England, South East and London.

The North East, North West, South West, Yorkshire and Humber regions are under a yellow alert. Both alerts will remain in place until 17:00 BST Wednesday.
