Britain braced for hottest day
Britain is experiencing the hottest day of the year so far with temperatures forecast to rocket to 36C (96.8F).
Experts said the heatwave will show no sign of relenting as hot winds from France boost temperatures further.
Monday and Tuesday have already seen the two hottest days of the year so far with temperatures of up to 33.2C (91.8F).
Matt Dobson, of the PA WeatherCentre, said the highest temperatures will be recorded in the area west of London, north of Bristol and south of Birmingham.
"It has been amazingly hot over France and the extra bit of hot air will move across the UK and that will boost the temperatures further," he said.
If the mercury does reach 36C it will match the hottest July day, set on July 22, 1911, in Epsom, Surrey.
The highest UK temperature ever recorded was 38.5C (101.3F) in Faversham, Kent, on August 10, 2003.
British temperatures this week have outstripped popular holiday destinations including Athens, Bermuda, Rio de Janeiro and Rome.
