Climate change: Last year's UK heatwave will be a new norm

Met Office says it will be average weather in the incoming future. In other words, it doesn't look like the full rainy weather will always be there, in the UK.

Climate change is impacting all parts of the UK. It is playing a key role in pushing temperatures to record highs.

According to BBC, "The UK's highest daily temperature last year was 40.3C, recorded at Coningsby in Lincolnshire, which beat the previous high mark by a large margin. This was not an isolated incident, according to the Met Office, with persistent warmth prevalent across the year."

"The actual extremes that we're seeing, the highest, the hottest days, those are really increasing markedly too," stated author, Mike Kendon. "We're going to see very, very many more days, exceeding 30, 32 or 35C. So warmer summers will become very much more frequent, and hot days will become very much more frequent."

Those predictions only prove how the climate crisis is going to affect us in the near future. It will become even more dangerous for other parts of Europe, especially countries like Greece or Italy.
